							Dialing Manually
You can use the keypad to manually dial a phone number.
Dial a number:  Tap Keypad, enter the number, then tap Call.
If you copy a phone number to the clipboard, you can paste it to the numeric keypad.
Paste a number to the keypad:   Tap the screen above the keyboard, then tap Paste. 
If the phone number you copied included letters, iPhone converts them to the 
appropriate digits.
You can include a soft pause, which pauses dialing for about two seconds, or a hard 
pause, which pauses dialing until you tap the Dial Button. Pauses can be useful when 
dialing in to a conference call, for example.
Enter a soft pause:   Press and hold the “*” key until a comma appears in the number.
Enter a hard pause:   Press and hold the “#” key until a semicolon appears in the number.
Redial the last number you dialed:   Tap Keypad, then tap Call. Tap Call again to dial 
the number.
Voice Dialing
You can use Voice Control to call someone in your contacts, or to dial a specific number.

Voice Control screen appears and you hear a beep. Then use the commands described 
below to make a call.

Voice Control.
Call someone in contactsSay “call” or “dial” then say the name of the person. If the 
person has more than one number, specify which one you 
want to call.
Examples:
 ÂCall John Appleseed
 ÂCall John Appleseed at home
 ÂCall John Appleseed, mobile
Dial a number Say “call” or “dial,” then say the number.
For best results, speak the full name of the person you’re calling. If you speak only the 
first name and you have more than one contact with that name, iPhone asks which of 
those contacts you want to call. If there’s more than one number for the person you’re 
calling, say which number to use. Otherwise, iPhone asks you.

may not work in all locations. Emergency numbers and services vary by country or 
region. Only emergency numbers valid in the country or region where you’re making 
the call will work, and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network 
unavailability or environmental interference. Some cellular networks may not accept 
an emergency call from iPhone if it doesn’t have a SIM card or if the SIM card is locked 
(GSM models), or if you haven’t activated your iPhone. If you’re on a FaceTime video 
call, you must end that call before you can call an emergency number.
