6. The Phone Book

The Phone Book can store up to 75 phone numbers and names. It also has a “notepad” where you can store one additional temporary number and name.

The maximum number of Phone Book entries depends on how much information you store in each entry. The more information you store per entry, the fewer entries you can have. The phone holds 75 entries if the average entry size is about 10 digits and 12 characters.

This section includes details for using the Phone Book. You can also use Menu 1 to find, save, edit, and erase stored Phone Book entries. See “Phone Book (Menu 1)” on page 31.

Saving entries

Quick save

1At the Ready screen, enter the area code (if needed) then the phone number, then press OK.

2At the Save Name: prompt, enter the name (optional) then press OK twice. (See “Entering names” on page 23).

Note: Identical names cannot be stored in the Phone Book. If you try to store a name that is already stored, the phone will ask if you want to replace the entry. To do this, at REPLACE? (followed by the name), press OK.

If you don’t want to replace the contents, re-enter the information using a slightly different name, then save again.

Entering names

1When Save Name: and the indicator appear, you can enter letters by pressing the keypad keys a certain number of times, as indicated in the table on the next page.
