To choose one of the numbers of a contact to dial

By default, the mobile telephone number (m) of a contact is dialed when you make a call from Contacts. However, you can specify that a different phone number is dialed instead.

1.Tap Start > Contacts.

2.Press Navigation Control up or down to select the contact.

3.Press Navigation Control left or right to scroll through the numbers available for that contact.

Make a call from Call History

1.On the Phone screen, tap Call History.

2.You can either scroll through all calls in Call History, or tap Menu > Filter and select from a category of call types.

3.Scroll to the desired contact or phone number, and tap Call.

Make a call from Speed Dial

Use Speed Dial to call frequently-used numbers with a single tap. For example, if you assign a contact to the location 2 in Speed Dial, you

can simply tap and hold on the Phone screen to dial the contact’s number. Before you can create a Speed Dial entry, the number must already exist in Contacts.

To create a Speed Dial entry

1.On the Phone screen, tap Speed Dial.

2.Tap Menu > New.

3.Tap a contact. Select the phone number that you want to add to Speed Dial.

4.In the Location box, select an available location for the new Speed Dial entry.

Note Location 1 is generally reserved for your voice mail, and Speed Dial will designate the next available location by default. If you want to place a phone number in a position that is already occupied, the new number will replace the number that is already there.
