Before using voice-activated dialling, note that:

the speaker’s voice.

• Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record them and

make calls in a quiet environment.

• When recording a voice tag or making a call by saying a voice tag,

the loudspeaker is in use. Hold the phone at a short distance away

from your mouth and face so that the proximity sensor does not

turn the loudspeaker off.

avoid similar names for different numbers.

whenever you open the folder.

- Manual: Use this to enter voice-activated dialling mode by

holding the star (*) key.

Note

• You must say the name exactly as you said when
