Searching the Phone Book
Information stored in your Phone Book is sorted either alphabetically (the
first character of the memory location) or numerically by memory location
number. So, one way to search your Phone Book is to simply scroll using
the
Jog Dial
. No matter how your Phone Book is sorted, you can find
information quickly by searching alphabetically, by memory location or
phone number. Once a Phone Book entry is displayed, you can call it by
pressing
SEND
or
Jog Dial
twice.
Searching your Phone Book alphabetically
Quick alphabetic Phone Book recall
If your Phone Book is sorted alphabetically, you can search using the
phone’s keypad. For example, when viewing your Phone Book, press [2]
and entries that begin with “A” are displayed. Press [7] four times to
display entries that begin with “S”. If no entries that begin with that
letter, it looks for the next letter on the key. If there aren’t any entries for
any of the letters on the key, it searches for the first letter of the next key.
Once the phone displays an entry, you can use
Jog Dial
to scroll up or
down from there.
Alphabetic search
You can search alphabetically using as little as 1 character or as many as
12 characters. Search from standby mode or from the Directory menu.
