NOTE

You do not need to press Option to

access the numbers on the keyboard.
However, when dialing short numbers,
such as 411, the number may conflict with
a contact name. If this occurs, press
Option

to avoid starting a contact

lookup. You can always dial emergency call
numbers without pressing Option first.

Dialing by contact name

You can look up contacts quickly by
entering just a few letters of a contact’s
name directly from your Today screen.
Before you can dial a call by contact name,
you must create some contacts (see
Adding a contact) or import them by
synchronizing (see Synchronizing contacts
and other info
).

1 Go to your Today screen (see Accessing

your Today screen).

2 Using the keyboard, begin entering one

of the following for the contact you
want to call:

First name (JOH for John)

Last name (SMI for Smith)

First initial, a space, and then last
initial (J S for John Smith)

First name and last name
(JOH SMI for John Smith)

For example, entering SM finds both
Smilla Anderson and John Smith.
Entering SM A finds only Smilla
Anderson.

3 Select the number you want to dial.

4 Press Phone/Send

to dial.
