cellular phones with Bluetooth wireless technology support the following
functions:
•Answering an incoming call
•Ending a call
•Using privacy mode
•Dialing a number
•Redialing
•Call waiting notification

phonebook download, are phone-dependent features. To check your
phone’s compatibility, see your phone’s user manual and visit
