Set up Your Area Code

When returning calls from the Caller ID history, your machine will dial "1" plus the area code. If your local dialing plan requires that the "1" not be used for calls within your area code, enter your area code in this setting.

This feature is available only in the USA.

Calls returned from the Caller ID history to numbers within your area code will be dialed using only 10 digits (area code + seven-digit number). If your dialing plan does not follow the standard 1 + area code + seven-digit number dialing system for calling outside your area code, you may experience problems returning calls from the Caller ID history and will not be able to return calls to those numbers using Caller ID history.
