BLUE&ME™ User’s Manual 33

would like to call. The phone number type can either be
“(at) Home”,“(at) Work”,or“(on/at) Other”).
If the name is recognized, the system will display the
recognized contact’s information (John Smith, in this
example) on the display screen.
If John Smith has just one phone number, the system will
ask if you would like to call John Smith. To start the call
say“Yes”, otherwise say“No”.
If John Smith has several phone numbers, the system will
ask which phone number you would like to call (e.g.,
“Call John Smith(at) Work or (at) Home?”). Answer with
the type of required phone number (e.g.,“(at) Home”).
If John Smith has several phone numbers but the “loca-
tion” (i.e.: the type of phone number like work, home,
etc.) is missing, the system will display the selected
contact and a list of related phone numbers.To call the displayed phone number, say“Call”.

use the “at location” portion of the voice command (e.g.,

shorten the number of steps required to make the phone
call.

eral digits, a digit group is created. The system will
repeat the recognized digits.
If the spoken digits are correct, you can continue pro-
nouncing the phone number. If the spoken digits are
incorrect, you can delete the digit group by saying

ber, say“Repeat”. If no phone number was dialed, the
