Voice Assist
Voice Assist is a speech recognition program that enables
you to launch programs or dial contacts by speaking an
associated command into the microphone.
Voice tips
• Speak clearly, naturally, and continuously.
• If you are in a very noisy environment, use the headset.
If you are not using the headset, address the internal
microphone at the bottom of the phone at a distance of
about 10 to 20 cm from your mouth.
• Speak when Voice Assist is ready to listen, as indicated
by the progress bar and after an audible beep.
• If Voice Assist does not clearly hear what you said, try
repeating your voice command. If problems persist, try
the Sensitivity setting to optimise the speech engine for
your voice.

to dial must be in the phone’s memory or the SIM card.
