20 Making and Receiving Calls
Sending Tone Signals
To use telephone banking services or to control an answering machine,
you need to use codes. These codes are sent as tone signals (also known
as DTMF tones or touch tones). With your mobile phone, you may
use these codes during a call. If you press
0–9, * and # during a call,
these numbers and characters are sent as tone signals.
Note! You can also save codes only or codes together with a phone number
in your Phone Book. See “Telephone Banking Services” on page 29.
However, it may be a risk to save your codes in the phone in case it is
stolen.
The Notepad
If you want to make a note of a phone number during a call, you can
use your phone display as a notepad. When you end the call, the
number remains in the display or, if

, you will be
asked to save the number in your phone book. You can also find the
number in

menu. See “Creating a
Phone Book Entry” on page 26.
Checking the Duration or Cost of the Call
During a call, the display normally shows the duration in minutes
and seconds. Depending on your subscription, you may see the call
cost displayed instead.
Minute Minder
If you turn on the minute minder, you hear a beep once every minute
during a call as a reminder of the duration of the ongoing call. See
“More Personalization Options” on page 22.
More than One Call Simultaneously
Your phone is capable of handling more than one call simultaneously.
When you press
YES to answer the second call, the first call will auto-
matically be put on hold. You can also set up a conference call with
up to five people. See “Handling Multiple Calls” on page 47.
