Using Voice Dialing
Note:
Use Voice Dial tags in a
quiet environment and
without the aid of an
accessory. (For example, a
headset or hands-free car
kit)
Your phone features voice-activated dialing. You can call up
to 10 stored entries by speaking the individual’s or
company’s name into the microphone. Using the voice-
activated dialing option requires that you first program the
phone to recognize the name of the individual or company
you are calling.
Tips on recording names
䊳 Avoid recording similar names phonetically. If you
record a name similar to one that is already stored in a
voice-dial memory, the phone requests another name.
䊳 Avoid recording in a noisy place.
䊳 Speak clearly and naturally.
䊳 Avoid very long or very short names. Names with two to
five syllables are recommended.
䊳 If a voice dial entry does not properly connect, you may
need to record the name and number again.
Programming the Phone for Voice Dialing
Programming your phone for voice activated dialing is
easy. The phone provides voice prompts and screen displays
to guide you through the recording process. To program the
phone for voice activated dialing:
1. From the Main Menu press for Voice Dial.
2.
Press for Record. The phone will prompt you to
say the name you want to program.
3. Wait for the beep and then say the name. For best
results, use names with at least two syllables, or use
both a first and last name. The phone stores the name
as a “first” sample, and then prompts you to say the
name again.
4. Respond to the prompt by repeating the name after the
beep exactly as you did the first time. The phone stores
the name as a second sample and then requests the
phone number.
5. Enter the phone number on the keypad.
