shop (restaurant) called “Bucks.”
• If you know the phone number of the
coffee shop, select Phone Number,
then enter the 10-digit number with
area code. This is the quickest way to
find it.

restaurants that have the letters

telephone number. Only telephone

the fastest entry method. When using the

number (310) 555-4000 should be
spoken as “Three, one, zero, five, five,
five, four, zero, zero, zero.”
