Making a call
Before making a call, ensure that your Toshiba
phone is switched on, that there is a valid SIM card
installed, and that the signal is sufficiently strong.
Making a call from the Phone screen
To make a call from the Phone screen:
1. From the Today screen, press the Send key or
tap Start > Phone.
2. Enter a phone number using the numeric
keypad.
3. Press the Send key or tap Talk.
Making an emergency call
You can make calls to emergency service numbers
under almost any circumstances, even if you have
locked your Toshiba phone or if you have not
enabled your SIM.
For further information, see Emergency calls in
Health and safety.
Making a call from Contacts
To make a call from Contacts:
1. From the Today screen, tap Contacts or Start
> Contacts.
2. Scroll to the required contact, then press the
Send key.
Making a call to a non-default number
You can assign a work phone number (w), mobile
phone number (m) and home phone number (h) to a
contact that is saved to the phone.
The mobile phone number is dialled by default.
TIP: When you tap a key on the numeric
keypad, a list of names and/or numbers is
displayed. This list shows matching names
and numbers from Contacts, Call History,
Speed Dial and the SIM card.
For example, if you tap 2, names beginning
with A, B or C and phone numbers beginning
with 2 are displayed.
You can enter more characters to reduce the
number of matching entries.
To call an entry, tap it, then tap Call.
TIP: If you have a long list of contacts, enter
the first few letters of the contact's name. The
phone will display only the matching contact.
To call the contact, press the Send key.
