Viewing dialed, received, and missed calls

You can view calls that you have recently dialed, received, or missed.

The phone saves missed and received calls only if the network supports these functions and if the phone is switched on and within the network service area.

Press Recent calls, and select Dialed calls, Received calls, or Missed calls.

To move from one dialog page to another, press Menu.

You can also view call information in the Log. See "Log{No generated text before found for '#comma'}" p.24.

To call a number, select a call in the list, and press Call. To remove all calls from the list, press Clear all.

To save the phone number of the call in your Contacts directory, select the number in the list, and press Add to Contacts.

Sending touchtones

You can send touchtones during an active call to control your voice mailbox or other automated phone services.

To send a touchtone sequence, make a call, wait until the other end answers, press Menu, and select Call... > Send touch tone.... Select a predefined touchtone sequence, or type it.

Tip: You can attach touchtone sequences to contact cards. Go to Contacts, open a contact card, press Add field, and select DTMF.

To insert a pause of about 2 seconds before, or between, touchtones, press the p key.

To set the device to send the touchtones only after you press Send tone during a call, press the w key.

Tip: You can also send tones by pressing the number keys. When the device cover is closed, you can press number keys on the phone keypad to send tones.

Setting the offline profile

The offline profile prevents you from accidentally switching on your phone, using Bluetooth, sending or receiving messages, and it also closes any Internet connection which may be in operation when the offline profile is selected. Note, however, that the offline profile does not prevent you from establishing a new wireless LAN connection. Therefore, remember to comply with any applicable safety requirements when establishing and using a wireless LAN connection.

Important: In offline profile you cannot make (or receive) any calls, or use other features that require GSM network coverage. To make any calls, you must first activate the phone function by changing the profile. You may, however, be able to make an emergency call in offline profile by pressing the power key on the cover of the device and then entering the official emergency number. This can be done using the cover phone interface only, not the communicator interface. If the device has been locked, enter the lock code to activate the phone function. When the device is locked, calls may still be possible to the official emergency number.

Making an emergency call in offline profile or when the device is locked requires that the device recognizes the number to be an official emergency number. It may be advisable to change the profile or unlock the device by entering the lock code before you make the emergency call.

To activate the offline profile, go to Telephone, press Menu, and select > Offline.

To allow full communication again, press Menu, and select > Exit Offline profile > OK. Then switch on the cover phone. Tip: You can activate the offline profile in any application menu, or from the cover phone.

Call forwarding

You can forward incoming calls to your voice mailbox or to another phone number.

To forward voice calls, go to Telephone, press Menu, and select Settings > Voice call forwarding. Select one of the following forwarding options:

Forward all calls — to forward all incoming calls

Forward if busy — to forward incoming calls when you have an active call

Forward if out of reach — to forward calls when the phone is either switched off or out of network coverage

Forward if not answered — to forward calls after a certain time period. Define the time you let the phone ring before forwarding the call in the Time delay field.

Tip: To activate Forward if busy, Forward if out of reach, and Forward if not answered in a single action, scroll to Forward if not available, and press Change.
