Once you have saved name tags in the phone book for the speech control

Entering data
You should choose spoken names that can be identified clearly by the speech 
control system.
Numbers from  ZERO to NINE  are recognised when you enter a telephone 
number. The telephone number can be specified all at once, in blocks of 
digits (separated by a brief pause), or as single digits. After each block of 
digits you specify (separated by a brief pause) the system will repeat the 
digits. The system does not recognise number combinations (e.g. "twenty-
three") but separate figures ( TWO, THREE ). Say the numbers clearly so that 
the system can recognise them easily.
If you indicate a number of more than twenty figures, the system will respond: 
The number is too long . A Plus (+)  can also be placed ahead of the number.
If the system does not recognise a phone book entry, you can play back the 
name tags (voice entries) on the speech control system by saying the 
command  PLAY PHONE BOOK . Press the talk button as a name is being read 
to select the entry.

tooth?•Is the mobile phone inserted in the mobile phone adapter*?•Is the mobile phone switched on and the PIN entered?
