Once you call back an edited number, the unit which was used to call back remembers the area code and format of the edited number. The next time someone calls from the same area code, caller information is customized by the unit as follows:
– When the call is being received, the Caller ID number is displayed in the same format as the edited number.
– After the call has ended, the caller’s phone number is displayed in the same format as the edited number, when reviewed from the caller list.
For example, you can use this feature to set the unit to ignore the area code of callers in your area, so that you can call these local numbers using caller information without dialing the area code.
To activate this feature, you must edit an entry in the caller list, then call that number. After that, phone numbers from that caller’s area code are edited automatically.
This feature can be set for each unit (page 47, 50). The default setting is “On”.

In addition to your unit’s answering system you may also have voicemail service from your phone service provider. Voicemail is an answering service that may be offered by your phone service provider. This service can also record calls when you are unavailable to answer the phone or when your line is busy. Messages are recorded on the phone company system and not on the unit’s answering system.
If you have unit’s answering system set to on and also the voicemail enabled, the system with least amount of rings will record the message first.
Example: If the unit’s answering system is set to 4 rings (page 70) and the voicemail answering system provided by your phone company is set to 6 rings (call your service provider), the unit’s answering system will record the incoming call first.
In order to listen to your voicemail messages, you must dial your phone service provider’s voicemail access number. Once you have stored your voicemail access number, you can dial it automatically (page 73).
