Voice-Activated Dialing
In addition to PCS Voice CommandSM (see page 95), you can use a 
voice tag that you set in your phone’s memory to automatically dial 
an existing phone number in your Contacts list.
To use voice-activated dialing, you must first assign a voice tag 
to the number you wish to call.
Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record them and 
make calls in a quiet environment. When recording a voice tag or 
making a call by saying a voice tag, hold the phone in the normal 
position near your ear.
When using voice-activated dialing, keep the following in mind:

Voice tags are not language-dependent. They are dependent 
on the speakers voice.

You must say the name exactly as you said it when you 
recorded it.

Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record voice 
tags and use them in a quiet environment.

Very short names are not accepted. Use longer names and 
avoid using similar names for different numbers.
Note: You must say the voice tag exactly as you recorded it. This may be 
difficult in, for example, a noisy environment or during an emergency. You 
should not rely solely upon voice dialing in all circumstances.
Assigning a Voice Tag to a Phone Number
To assign a voice tag to a phone number:
1.Press  to display your Contacts list.
2.Scroll to select an entry for a voice tag and press Details. 
(The number associated with this entry is displayed.)
3.Press Options, scroll to Add voice tag, and press Select.
4.Press Start and speak the voice tag clearly as though you 
were speaking normally into the phone. (The indicator 
 
is displayed on your screen.)
5.Press Options to assign other features to this entry, or press 
 to return to the standby mode.
