Calling Nicknames
Your Contact List incorporates a field called “Nickname.”
When you add a nickname to a contact, you can say the
contact's name or nickname when using the voice features.
For example, if you have a contact, “John Smith” stored in
your contact list, and you add, “Dad” to the nickname field,
you can call that contact by saying, “Call John Smith” or by
saying “Call Dad.”
Calling Phone Numbers (Digit Dialing)
To voice dial a number that is not stored in your contact list:
䊳
Say “Call” followed immediately by a valid string of
digits to be dialed, for example, say
“Call 555 555 5555."
Speak naturally and clearly and remember to speak one
digit at a time- 1-800 should be pronounced “One Eight
Zero Zero.”
Adapting Digit Dial
Digit Dialing is speaker independent, which means that no
training or adaptation is required. Some users with heavy
accents or unusual voice characteristics may find difficulty
in achieving high accuracy with speaker independent Digit
Dialing, so the Adapt Digits feature allows users to
dramatically improve the digit accuracy through
adaptation. Users who get acceptable digit recognition
Tip: If your contact list contains a name that you have difficulty
using with the voice features (such as some unusual or
foreign names), you can add a nickname for that contact
that spells out the proper pronunciation of that name.
