Making Calls

This chapter shows you how to make phone calls, and the various options available
to you during your call.

Before making a call

Check that the phone function is on before you make a call. You can confirm the
phone status from the icon on the right-hand side of the Notification area.
Icon Description
Connected to the network: You may make a call.
Airplane mode: Wireless connectivity disconnected (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 2G and 3G).
Please disable airplane mode before trying to make a call.

Making a call

Note: The phone function needs to be enabled before the call can be connected.
1. From the Home screen tap Phone to open the
onscreen number pad.
2. Enter the number you wish to dial.
3. Tap to make the call.
4. To end the call, tap End.
Dialing an international number
When dialing international numbers, there is no need to
enter the international direct dialing prefix ('00' etc.)
before the country code. Simply tap and hold 0+ on the
onscreen number pad until + appears onscreen.
Warning: International call rates can vary greatly
depending on the country you are calling and your network provider. We suggest
you check all call rates with your network provider, to avoid excessive phone bills. If
you are using your smartphone abroad, roaming charges will apply. Consult your
network provider for roaming rates specific to the country you are visiting before
you leave.
Smart search
Smart search allows you to quickly find a contact from the phone keypad. As you
enter a number, if it is already known, it will find appropriate contacts and display
them in the list above the keypad. Also, instead of typing a phone number, you may
enter the contact name using the predictive text letters (2 for 'a', 'b' or 'c'; 3 for 'd',
'e' or 'f'; etc.). If the letter combinations match a contact name, it will be displayed.
