Adding a new contact

About this task
You can add up to six numbers for a contact. Selecting "track presence" as a type allows you to
track the contact's telephone presence, for example, not logged in, logged in, in use, or sending all
calls to another number.
Procedure
1. Press Contacts > More > New.
2. Enter the first and last name using the dialpad.
• Press the number key that corresponds to the letter or number you want to enter until the
letter or number is displayed.
• If the characters are on the same key, pause before entering the next character.
• To enter a space, press 0.
• Enter remaining letters or numbers.
• To delete the last character, press the Bksp softkey.
Note:
If you want to remove a letter, number, space, or symbol that is in the middle of the
text you entered, use the left and right navigation arrows to place your cursor after the
character you want to remove. Once your cursor is in the correct position, press the
Bksp softkey to remove the character to the left of the cursor.
3. Choose Yes in the Track Presence field to know the presence information for this contact. If
the presence information is available for this person, the deskphone displays the presence
icon next to this name of the contact on the Phone screen or the Contact screen.
4. Scroll to the next field.
5. Enter the number.
6. Press More > Primary if applicable.
The primary number is the one that will always display without having to go into contact
details.
7. Scroll to the next field and choose the type of number that you entered: Work, Home, Mobile.
8. If you have another number for this contact, select the next field and repeat Step 5 to Step 6.

number as primary.
