3.10 Caller ID number auto 
edit feature
This feature allows the unit to automatically edit 
incoming phone numbers, and display or store 
phone numbers using a preset pattern of your 
choosing. (These 3 patterns are explained on 
page 42, 43, 1, 2, and 3.) For example, you 
may want the unit to ignore the area code of calls 
originating from your area code, so that you can 
call these numbers without dialing the area code.
Once you have set a telephone number to be 
edited according to pattern 1 or 2, all other 
numbers from the same area code will be 
automatically edited according to the same 
pattern. The unit can remember up to 4 area 
codes to be edited according to patterns 1 and 
2.
To activate this feature, you must first set this 
feature to ON, then make an outgoing call from 
the Caller ID list to a number which you have 
assigned to one of the auto edit patterns.
This feature can be turned ON using either the 
handset or the base unit. The default setting is

Caller ID numbers will not be automatically
