•
Phone number (be sure to press
Option
twice to turn on Option
Lock before entering a phone
number)
You can type letters from the last name

several features that make it easy to find the
contact you want, even if you are not sure of
the exact name: 1) Search results include
name variations, such as “David” for “Dave.”
2) The search function inserts a space before
the last letter typed in if it cannot find a match.
So if entering “Davidm” returns to no results,
the search function automatically tries to
search for “David M.” 3) Search results
include soundalike entries, so entering
“Dwayne” returns results for “Duane” also.
When you select a contact
entry, you are presented with several options
for contacting the person, depending on what
information you have entered for the contact.
For example, you may see options for calling a
