Search the directory
While an entry is displayed in the directory, press
a dial pad key (2-9) to start a quick name search.
The directory will display the first name beginning
with the first letter associated with a certain key
(if there is an entry beginning with any letter on
that key).

NOTES:

1. On the dial pad or quick search keys (2-9), each key corresponds to

the letters. Please refer to page 20 for details.

2. If there is no name entry matching the first letter of the key,

the directory will display a name entry matching the second
letter of the key.

If there is more than one entry beginning with the
same letter, it will be necessary to scroll through all
the names that begin with that letter before seeing
names that beginning with the next letter.
For example, if there are entries for Jennifer, Jessie,
Kevin and Linda in the directory, pressing the dial pad
key

5 once will show Jennifer, twice for Jessie, three

times for Kevin and four times for Linda. If you press
4, and if there is no name entry which matches those
letters, the directory will show Jennifer because it is
the name entry which matches the next available letter
(J) in the directory.
