Calling Nicknames

Your Contact List incorporates a field called “Nickname.” When you add a nickname to a contact, you can say the contact's name or nickname when using the voice features. For example, if you have a contact, “John Smith” stored in your contact list, and you add, “Dad” to the nickname field, you can call that contact by saying, “Call John Smith” or by saying “Call Dad.”

Tip:

If your contact list contains a name that you have difficulty

 

using with the voice features (such as some unusual or

 

foreign names), you can add a nickname for that contact

 

that spells out the proper pronunciation of that name.

 

 

Calling Phone Numbers (Digit Dialing)

To voice dial a number that is not stored in your contact list:

Say “Call” followed immediately by a valid string of digits to be dialed, for example, say

“Call 555 555 5555."

Speak naturally and clearly and remember to speak one digit at a time- 1-800 should be pronounced “One Eight Zero Zero.”

Adapting Digit Dial

Digit Dialing is speaker independent, which means that no training or adaptation is required. Some users with heavy accents or unusual voice characteristics may find difficulty in achieving high accuracy with speaker independent Digit Dialing, so the Adapt Digits feature allows users to dramatically improve the digit accuracy through adaptation. Users who get acceptable digit recognition
