About voice tags
Before using voice dialing, note that:
• Voice tags are not language dependent. They are dependent on the
speaker’s voice.
• Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record them and make
calls in a quiet environment.
• When recording a voice tag or making a call by saving a voice tag,
hold the phone in the normal position near to your ear.
• Very short names are not accepted. Use long names and avoid similar
names for different numbers.
• You cannot use the voice tag or voice dialing feature if you are actively
sending or receiving data using the GPRS connection.
Note: You must say the name exactly as you said it when you
recorded it. This may be difficult in, for example, a noisy environment
or during an emergency, so you should not rely solely upon voice
dialing in all circumstances.

the phone automatically dials the number.

you will hear an error tone and No match found appears. To start voice
dialing again, press and hold the headset button immediately after
the error tone.
