Explanation:
Otra opción que, a pesar de las apariencias, no está muy lejos de la anterior, es pensar en un error tipográfico e interpretar el 'lo' como el número '10' (o sea '10-digit'). Esto tiene mucho sentido en el contexto de telefonía... y especialmente en un párrafo donde menciona '7-digit' dialing, que es un estandar que se está cambiando...

1. What is 10 digit dialing?
Currently, when making a local call, you dial a 7 digit number (555-1234). 10 digit dialing means you will now have to dial the area code in front of the local number (613-555-1234). Dialing the area code does not make this a long distance call.

El uso como 'verbo' sería así: 'No programe esta opción si usted {usa|tiene que usar} 10 dígitos para acceder a números locales'.

Suerte!
