About Home Area Code and Local Area Codes
Always program your Home Area Code, and, if you need them,up to four
Local Area Codes. (See “Program Home Area Code”on page 7 for
information about the Home Area Code). Programming these area codes
changes how numbers are displayed in the call history,and allows for
correct operation of the Display Dial feature.
Refer to the chart below to determine whether you will need to program
Local Area Codes after you install your phone.

All calls outside 11 digits No Local Area Codes

If you dial 10 digits (area code plus phone number) for calls within
your own area code, include your area code as a Local Area Code.

(LOCAL1–LOCAL4), then use the keypad to enter each area code.

to display the Home Area Code entry screen,and will be unable to display

entering a Home Area Code, you will hear an error tone.
