Call Functions

In-Use Menu Options

Your phone provides a number of functions that you can use during a call. You cannot utilise all of these functions at all times. Many of the In-Use Menu Options are network services.

Press during a call to choose some or all of the following In-Use Menu options:

Phonebook: allows you to access the Phone Book menu. For details, see page 65.

Message: allows you to access the Messages menu. For details, see page 81.

Mute/Unmute: allows you to switch your phone’s microphone off, so that the other party cannot hear you.

Example: You wish to say something to another person in the room but do not want the other party to hear you.

Silent Key: does not transmit the key tones. It allows you to press keys without hearing annoying key tones during a call.

Note: To communicate with answering machines or computerised telephony systems, this option must be disabled.

Viewing Missed Calls

Your phone keeps a list of calls that you do not answer when the phone is on and the caller can be identified. The phone indicates a missed call by displaying a text notification on the screen. Additionally, if caller information is available, the phone displays the phone number of the most recent missed call.

Press to make a call to the displayed number, or

to clear the message and return to Standby mode.

Dropped Calls

A dropped call can occur during a conversation in response to a signal fade or leaving a service area. In this case, the call ends and “Signal Faded” displays.

Press to clear the message and return to Standby mode.
