Note: This feature requires the caller ID network service, and
the caller’s ID must be available to the phone in order for the
restriction to work.
Adding numbers to the restricted incoming calls list
A call restriction can consist of an entire phone number, just
an area code, etc. When the restriction is selected, calls
cannot be received from any number beginning with those
digits. For example, entering 2145551234 blocks calls from
(214) 555-1234 only. 214 blocks all calls from the 214 area
code.
To create a list of incoming numbers from which you don’t
want to receive calls, enter your security code, then press
OK. Continue with the steps illustrated below.
