Voice-Activated Dialing
In addition to PCS Voice Command SM (see page 91), you can use a voice
command that you set in your phone’s memory to automatically dial an
existing phone number in your Internal Phone Book.
To use voice-activated dialing, you must first assign a voice command to
the number you wish to call.
Assigning a Voice Command to a Phone Number
To assign a voice command (voice tag) to a phone number:
1. Press the down scroll key ( ) to display your current list of
Internal Phone Book entries.
2. Scroll to the entry to which you wish to assign a voice command and
press
Details . The number associated to this entry is displayed.
3. Press Options, scroll to Add voice tag , and press Select .
4. Press Start , then speak the command clearly as though you were
speaking normally into the phone. The voice command indicator
(

Note: Be sure to record your voice command in a quiet environment and
without the aid of accessories (handsfree device) to avoid capturing
unwanted sounds. Unwanted sounds may cause your phone not to
recognize your command when you attempt to use voice dialing.

voice command indicator ( ) are displayed on your screen,

replays your command and automatically dials the number.
