Tips when recording and using voice
commands
If your phone cannot detect your voice command,
one of the following might have happened:
• You spoke too softly – try speaking louder.
27
Calling
• You held the phone too far away – hold it as you
do during a call.
• The voice command was too short – it should
be around one second long and more than one
syllable.
• You spoke too late or too soon – speak
immediately after the tone.
• You did not record the voice command when the
handsfree was attached – for voice control with
a handsfree kit, record when the handsfree is
attached.
• You used another intonation – use the same
intonation as in the recorded voice command.
Diverting calls
If you cannot answer incoming calls, you can
divert them to another number, for example, your
answering service.
When the Restrict calls function is activated, some
