Making and Receiving Phone Calls 29
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 or 1800 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.
AYour phone contains a “phone book”
that can be used to store names and
telephone numbers. See “Using the
Phone Book Menu” on page 46
for more 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. To delete the entire
number, press and hold the
C key.
Your phone will then attempt to make the
phone call. The display will show
Calling
to show the call attempt is being made. If
the call is not answered, pressing
O at
this point will end the attempt.
