5-3. Using Seven Digits Instead of Ten
If you can make a local call by dialing only seven digits instead of ten, you can tell the phone to hide your local
area code in the Caller ID list; any calls from outside your area code will show all ten digits.
Entering your area code
With the phone in standby, press and hold [cid/menu].
Press [ ] to move the pointer to select AREA CODE. If an area code was already stored, the handset will
display it.
Press [select/channel] to edit the area code.
Use the number keys ([0][9]) to enter all three digits of your area code.
If you make a mistake, press [delete] to erase the last digit.
When the number is correct, press [select/channel]. A conrmation tone sounds.
Press [END]. The handset returns to standby.
The phone uses the stored area code as a lter. When a call comes in, the phone compares the incoming area
code to the code programmed in the handset. If the two codes match, the handset hides the area code in the
Caller ID list.
When you’re in the Caller ID list, you can show the hidden area code by pressing [3]. Press [3] again to hide
the area code.
When you dial from a Caller ID list or store a Caller ID record in the phonebook, the phone dials or stores the
digits exactly as they appear on the display. If you need to use ten digits, be sure to press [3] to show the area
code before you dial or store the number. See Section 6-6, Storing Caller ID Records in the Phonebook.
5-4. Deleting Caller ID Records
If you get an incoming call or page, the operation is canceled.

5-5. Using Call Waiting
If you subscribe to Call Waiting and a second call comes in when you are
on the phone, the phone sounds a call waiting tone. If you also have Caller
ID service, the phone shows the Caller ID information for the incoming
call. To put the original call on hold and switch to the waiting call, press
[TALK/ash]. After a slight pause, you are connected to the new caller. Press
[TALK/ash] again to switch back to the original caller.

6) Using the Phonebook (speed dial memory)
If you enter phone numbers (along with names) into the handset’s phonebook/speed dial memory, you can
dial them with just two key presses.
The handset can store ten dierent phonebook entries (corresponding to 0 through 9 on the number keypad).
You can use the phonebook to store any number up to twenty digits. This is useful if you have a series of digits
that you need to enter after your call connects, such as an access code or account number (See section 6-7 on
Chain Dialing).
When you’re editing the phonebook, you must press a key within thirty seconds or the phone will return to standby.
6-1. Entering a New Number into the Phonebook
With the phone in standby, press [ /memory] to open the phonebook
list.
Enter a number ([0][9]) or press [ ] or [ ] to nd a phonebook
entry that shows <EMPTY> beside it, and press [select/channel]. The
handset opens the STORE NAME screen.
Use the letters above the number keys to enter a name for this phonebook
entry. Press [select/channel] when you’re nished (or if you don't want
to enter a name). The handset opens the STORE NUMBER screen.
