NOTE
If, in the future, your telephone service
provider requires you to dial the area code
when making a local call, or, if you move to
a location that requires it, delete the home
area code you have already programmed,
following the steps above. After you have
deleted the home area code, _ _ _ will
appear on the display.

Cell area code

Most cell phone entries are stored in a
10-digit format. If all of your cell phone
entries are stored this way, you do not
need to program your cell area code.
If your cell phone stores entries in a
7-digit format, we recommend that you
program your cell area code so that your
7-digit directory entries can be dialed
correctly using your home line.
