Global Smart Dialing (International Calls)
When the Global Smart Dialing feature is enabled, placing international calls is a lot easier. You can
preconfigure the country where you are calling from and the country to call to, and then simply enter the
10-digit number when placing your international call. Both the international access code and country code
will automatically be prepended to the number.

1. Press the Talk key to open the Phone screen.

located from the
Dial from list. If the country is not in the list, enter its international access code in the
