VOICE COMMANDS
Your phone is equipped with an AVC (Advanced Voice Commands) feature.
This feature allows you to make calls or use the phone’s functions by simply
using your voice. All you have to do is talk into the phone and the phone will
recognize your voice and complete tasks by itself.

to say the name of the command you want to use. To complete your
task, simply follow the voice prompts. You can speak the name of the
command after you hear a beep.
You can hear a beep in the Tone Only Mode (Settings & Tools > Phone
Settings > Voice Commands Settings > Prompts > Mode > Tones Only)
