Telephone base settings
Home area code
If you dial local calls using only seven digits (area code not required), you can
program your home area code so that when you receive a call within your
local area, the telephone number is automatically stored without the area code
in the call log.
To change the setting:
Press the MENU softkey when the telephone base is
not in use.
Press /CID or /DIR to select Settings, then press the
SELECT softkey.
Press /CID or /DIR to select Home area code, then
press the SELECT softkey.
Use the dialing keys (0-9) to enter the desired home
area code. Press CANCEL to delete a digit.
Press the SET softkey to confirm or press the
BACK softkey to exit to the previous menu.

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 delete the home
area code, _ _ _ appears in the display.
Dial mode
The dial mode is preset to tone. If you do not have touch-tone service, you
need to change the setting to pulse.

not in use.

SELECT softkey.
Press /CID or /DIR to select Dial mode, then press
