Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record voice tags and use them in a quiet environment.

Very short names are not accepted. Use long names and avoid similar names for different numbers.

Note: Using voice tags may be difficult in a noisy environment or during an emergency, so you should not rely solely upon voice dialing in all circumstances.

Call settings

Location info sharing

Location info sharing is a network service. See "Network Services," p. 6.

If your wireless service provider supports this feature, then location info sharing allows the phone to share position information over the network. For calls to emergency numbers, this position information may be used by the emergency operator to determine the position of the phone. The functionality and accuracy of this feature is dependent on the network, satellite systems, and the agency receiving the information. It may not function in all areas or at all times.

Location information will always be shared with the network during emergency calls to the official emergency number programed into the phone, regardless of which setting is selected. After placing an emergency call the phone remains in emergency mode for 5 minutes. During this time, the location information will be shared with the network. For more information, see "Emergency calls," p. 74.

In the standby mode, select Menu > Settings > Call settings > Location info sharing > 911 only or Location on > OK > OK.

Emergency —This is the default profile. The phone location information is shared only during an emergency call to the official emergency number programed into

your phone. The phone screen displays in the upper left-hand corner of the standby mode.

Location on —The phone location information is shared with the network whenever

the phone is powered on and activated. The screen displays in the upper left hand corner of the standby mode.

Anykey answer

Anykey answer allows you to answer an incoming call by briefly pressing any key except the power key, right selection key, or end key.
