Using Skype Speed-Dial
Assigning a Speed-Dial Number
Use your computer to set a Skype speed-dial number.
1. Double-click the Skype icon in your system tray to open the Skype program.
2. In your Contacts list, right-click a contact and select Set Speed-Dial.
3. Enter a 1- or 2-digit speed-dial number for the contact and click OK.
Speed-Dialling
To call a contact using the Skype speed-dial number:
1. On the handset, press .
2. Enter the speed-dial number that you set in the Skype program.
3. Press .
Skype calls the contact associated with the speed-dial number.
Note:If you omit pressing when speed-dialling, the call may still go through Skype. However, in some
countries, if the speed-dial number matches an emergency number, an emergency call will be made
instead of a Skype call. It is always a good practice to press before entering the speed dial number.
