• This feature may not be available in
certain areas of the USA.
• If you redial from the Caller ID history
outside your area code you must set up
your AREA CODE in advance. (See
Setting up your area code on page 10.)
Setting up your area code 2
Your cordless handset will automatically dial
"1" plus the area code for any number that
does not originate in your area code. The
cordless handset can identify local calls from
your area code by entering your area code in
the Area Code setting. With this setting,
calls returned from the caller ID history to
your area code will be dialed using only
7-digits. If you must dial the area code to call
within your area code, do not enter this
setting. If your dialing plan does not follow the
standard 1 + area code + 7-digit number
dialing system for calling outside your area
code, you may experience problems
returning calls automatically from the caller ID
history. If this is not the procedure followed by
your dialing plan you will not be able to return
calls automatically.
