Using Digit Dial
Digit Dial allows you dial any valid 7 or 10 digit North American 
phone number by speaking the number naturally, without pausing 
between the digits. 
Tips for using Digit Dial:
Digit Dial works best in quieter environments.
When saying a number, speak at a normal speed and say each 
digit clearly. There is no need to pause between digits. 
The phone recognizes the digits one, two, three, four, five, six, 
seven, eight, nine, zero, and oh. The phone does not recognize 
numbers such as one eight hundred for  1-800. Instead, say 
one-eight-zero-zero.
The phone recognizes only valid 7 or 10 digit North American 
phone numbers.
If your phone does not usually recognize you correctly when 
you are using Digit Dial, try adapting Digit Dial to your voice, 
which can significantly improve accuracy for some speakers. 
(See 
Adapting Digit Dial on page 91 for details.)

Adapting Digit Dial
Digit Dialing is speaker independent, which means that no training 
or adaptation is required. Some users with heavy accents or unusual 
voice characteristics may find difficulty in achieving high accuracy 
with speaker independent Digit Dialing, so the Adapt Digits feature 
allows users to dramatically improve the digit accuracy through 
adaptation. Users who get acceptable digit recognition accuracy will 
find no additional benefit to performing the Adapt Digit adaptation.
After you adapt Digit Dial, your phone will be customized to your 
voice. Other people will not be able to use Digit Dial on your phone 
unless they reset the phone to factory defaults.
Adaptation involves recording several digit sequences to teach the 
system your voice. The adaptation process takes about 3 minutes.
Tips for adapting Digit Dial:
Adapt digits in a quiet place.
Make sure you wait for the beep before starting to speak.
Speak clearly, but say each digit sequence naturally.
If you make a mistake while recording a sequence of digits, or if 
there is an unexpected noise that spoils the recording, you can 
say or select No when the prompt asks, “Did the recording 
sound OK?”. You will then be prompted to re-record the 
sequence.
To adapt Digit Dial to your voice:
1.Press   for Settings.
2.Press  for Voice Dial. 
3.Press  for Adapt Digits.
4.The phone displays the first digit sequence. When you are 
ready to start recording, press 
. The phone prompts you to 
say the first sequence of digits.
Note:ONLY adapt Digit Dial if the system is frequently mis-recognizing your 
speech. You can always restore the system to its original factory setting. 
						

							Section 2I: Using Your Phone’s Voice Services 92
5.Wait for the beep, and then repeat the digits using a normal 
tone of voice. The phone plays back your recording and asks 
you if the recording sounds OK.
6.If the recording sounds OK (no mistakes, and no background 
noises), say Ye s. If you need to re-record the digits to fix any 
problems, say No. The phone then prompts you to say the 
digits again. Wait for the beep, and then record the digits 
again. Repeat this step until you are satisfied with the 
recording.
7.After confirming that the recording sounds OK, repeat the 
recording process with the next set of digits. After six sets of 
digits, the phone will ask you whether you want to do more 
adaptation. Answer Ye s.
8.Repeat steps 4-8 for another six sets of digits. After the sixth set 
of digits, you will be half way through the session and the 
phone asks “More Adapatation?” Select OK to continue for six 
more sets of digits, or press 
 for partial adapation. When 
you are finished with a full session, you will reach a screen that 
reads, “Adaptation Complete.”
Resetting Digit Dial Adaptation
To erase any adaptation and reset Digit Dial to its original state:
1.Press   for Settings.
2.Press  for Voice Dial.
3.Press  for Reset Digits. 
4.Press the navigation key up or down button to select Ye s and 
press 
.
Note:It is recommended that you perform the complete adaptation of Digit Dial 
at least once to achieve the maximum benefit of this feature. If a partial 
adaptation is performed, you can always return later and resume the 
process from the half way point.
