Making and Receiving Phone Calls 26 English
Making a Phone Call
To make a phone call, your phone must be switched on and
unlocked.
It will not be possible to make a phone call unless you are in an
area where there is a GSM900, 1800 or 1900 service. When a
service has been found, a series of rising bars,
x, will
show the signal strength.
There are a number of different ways to make a phone call:
• Using the digit keys.
• Using automatic redial.
• Redialling the last number called.
• One-touch dialling a Phone Book entry*.
• Dialling a Phone Book entry*.
• Calling an embedded number in a message.
• Using the Smart button ( =) and Voice Control.
A*Your phone contains a 'phone book' that can be used to
store names and telephone numbers. See ‘What is the
Phone Book?’ for further details.
The simplest method of making a phone call is to enter the
number using the digit keys then press
O.
AIf you make a mistake, press and release the C key to
remove the last digit. Holding the C key down will
remove the entire number.
To indicate that you are making a phone call, your phone displays
the outgoing call animation and the word Calling. If the call is
not answered and you want to end the call, press
O or close
the flip (models with flip only). Your phone displays the ending a
call animation.
When the phone call is answered, the display will change to
Connected for a few seconds, followed by End Call?.
To end your call, press
O or close the phone. Your phone
displays the ending a call animation.
Automatic Redial
If your call attempt does not succeed, the message Redial? will
be displayed for five seconds. Pressing
O at this point will
automatically redial the phone number.
When the call is answered, you will hear a short ring tone.
The maximum number of redial attempts is set by your Cellular
Service Provider. If the phone call cannot be connected within
this maximum, the message Redial Failed will be shown.
Redialling the Last Number Called
i When in standby mode, press OO.
Alternatively, you can retrieve the last number dialled using the
‘Last Ten Calls’ feature in the Phone Book menu.
