# Speed Dial 8

**Speed Dial 8** allows users to assign up to **eight frequently dialed numbers**—including long or hard-to-remember numbers—to **single-digit speed codes**. Users can then place calls by dialing the speed code instead of the full number.

* Speed codes use **single digits from 2 to 9**.
* Each speed code can be associated with:
  * Internal or external phone numbers
  * Emergency numbers (for example, **911**)
  * Service numbers (for example, **611** for customer support)
