Making a call

Before making a call, ensure that your Toshiba phone is switched on, that there is a valid SIM card installed, and that the signal is sufficiently strong.

Making a call from the Phone screen

To make a call from the Phone screen:

1.From the Today screen, press the Send key or tap Start > Phone.

2.Enter a phone number using the numeric keypad.

3.Press the Send key or tap Talk.

TIP: When you tap a key on the numeric keypad, a list of names and/or numbers is displayed. This list shows matching names and numbers from Contacts, Call History, Speed Dial and the SIM card.

For example, if you tap 2, names beginning with A, B or C and phone numbers beginning with 2 are displayed.

You can enter more characters to reduce the number of matching entries.

To call an entry, tap it, then tap Call.

Making an emergency call

You can make calls to emergency service numbers under almost any circumstances, even if you have locked your Toshiba phone or if you have not enabled your SIM.

For further information, see Emergency calls in Health and safety.

Making a call from Contacts
