American phone numbers simply by speaking each digit.
Tips for digit dialing

Say each digit clearly. However, there is no need to pause between
digits.

The phone recognizes only the digits one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, eight, nine, zero, and oh. Therefore, you must say each digit
in the number. The phone can not recognize numbers such as "one
eight hundred" for "1-800." Say "one-eight-zero-zero" instead.
䊳
The phone only recognizes valid North American phone numbers.

If your phone does not usually recognize you correctly when you are
digit dialing, you may improve recognition accuracy by adapting the
system to your voice. See the section "Adapting Digit Dialing" for
details.

In some cases, the phone might ask you to repeat a number. Make sure

understand the number on the second try, it will not place a call.
