3. If you are at on-hook and PICKUP or ADJ displays, you can adjust the phone
number format by pressing the DIAL button. If the phone is off-hook and ADJUST
shows in the display, you can adjust the phone number format by pressing the
DIAL button. For example, sometimes a 7-digit local number cannot be dialed
because it requires a 10-digit or 11-digit format. Press the
DIAL button repeatedly
to scroll through the 7, 10, and 11-digit numbers.
7-digits: 7-digit telephone number (i.e. 555-5555)
10-digits: 3-digit area code + 7-digit telephone number (i.e. 425-555-5555)
11-digits: long distance code 1 + 3-digit area code + 7-digit telephone
number (i.e. 1-425-555-5555)
4. To dial the displayed number, and the phone is on-hook, pick up the handset or
press the SPEAKER button before the timer reaches 0. If the phone is off-hook, wait
until the time reaches 0. The screen displays “NOW DIALING” and the number is
dialed.
If You Did Not Program Your Local Area Code
1. Use the SKIP or REPEAT buttons to display the number you want to dial. You will
only see 10-digit numbers (i.e. 234- 555-1234).
2. See Steps 2 through 4 in the previous section to complete the dialback process.
