Dialing by contact name

You can look up contacts quickly by entering just a few letters of a contact’s name directly from your Today screen.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN Before you can dial a number by contact name, you must create some contacts (see Adding a contact,) or import them by synchronizing (see Defining speed-dial buttons).

Make sure your phone is on and that you’re inside a coverage area (see Turning your phone on).

1Go to your Today screen.

2Using the keyboard, begin entering one of the following for the contact you want to call:

•First name (JOH for John)

•Last name (SMI for Smith)

•First initial, a space, and then last initial (J S for John Smith)

•First name and last name (JOH SMI for John Smith)

For example, entering SM finds both Smilla Anderson and John Smith. Entering SMA finds only Smilla Anderson.

To clear the Dial Lookup field and start another Contacts search, press OK. To delete letters when correcting a misspelled name, press Backspace.
