Creating Entries in the Phonebook
To store names and phone numbers directly into your handset phonebook, please follow these steps:
1. Move the joystick to the left, and then press the
Phone
soft key.
2. Press the
Options
key. Then select NEW ENTRY to create a new phonebook entry or
EDIT SELECTION to edit an existing entry.
3. Select the name icon
to enter or edit the name for this entry.
Use the keypad to enter a name for this entry; the name can contain up to 16 characters.
(See
Entering Text from Your Handset
on page 11 for instructions on entering text.) If you
do not want to enter a name for this entry, your phone will store this entry as NO NAME.
Press
the center of the joystick when you are finished, and your phone will return to the
edit phonebook entry screen.
4. Select one of the four phone number icons
to enter or edit a phone number.
Use the number keypad to enter the phone number; the phone number can contain up to
20 digits. If you need the phone to pause between digits when it’s dialing (for example, to
enter an extension or an access code), press the
Pause
soft key to insert a two-second
pause. You will see a P in the display. You can also use more than one pause together if
two seconds is not long enough. Each pause counts as one digit. Press
the center of the
joystick when you are finished.
After you enter the number, you can select an icon to remind you which number this is.
Choose from home, work, mobile or generic phone icons.
5. Select the personal ring icon
to choose a special ring tone for this entry.
You can attach a special ring tone to each phonebook entry; the phone will use this ring
tone when this person calls from any of the listed phone numbers. Move the cursor to
select one of the 24 different ring tone options (see
Selecting a Handset Ring Tone
on
page 33 for a complete list of ring tones). As you scroll through the tones, you will hear a
sample of each tone. When you hear the ring tone you want to use, press the center of
the joystick or the
Select
soft key. If you don't want this entry to use a personal ring tone,
choose NO SELECTION; the phone will use your standard ring tone setting.
