Home area code/local area codes
You can program this phone to recognize one
home area code and up to four local area codes.
If you simply dial the last seven digits of a tel-
ephone number to make a call within your own
area code, you should enter your own area code
into the telephone as the home area code. Then
if you receive a call from within your home area
code, the screen will display the seven digits of
the telephone number.
If for calls within your own home area code you
must dial 10 digits (that is, the area code and
telephone number), enter 000 for the home area
code and enter your area code as a local area
code. Then if you receive a call from within your
area code, the screen displays the 10 digits of the
telephone number.
If you ever have to dial 10-digit phone numbers,
(the area code with the 7-digit phone number), for
other nearby area codes, enter those area codes
as local area codes.
