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 on screen.
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 allow 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 or 'd', 'e' or 'f'; etc.). If the letter combinations match a contact
name, it will be displayed.
