Using Abbreviated Dialing

Abbreviated Dialing is similar to speed dialing. You can use either of the following abbreviated dialing features.

Ph.BookMatch allows you to retrieve any desired number saved in your Contacts by entering only the last three to six digits of the number, and automatically dials the retrieved number. (See “To activate the Ph. Book Match feature”on page 75.)

Prepend allows you to prepend predefined numbers (first five or six digits) to the last four or five digits you enter, and then automatically dials the number. (See page 75 to register a prepend number and activate the Prepend feature.)
