help with sony ericsson k800

I'm posting this question for a friend. He has a sony ericsson k800i and the screen has died. He reckons the rest of the phone is still working.
He wants to transfer all the contacts - he had hardly any on the sim.
We've got the PC suite downloaded but it couldn't find the phone.
The manual says you have to put the phone into 'Phone Mode' before connecting to the PC using usb cable.
Can somebody tell us the exact sequence of key presses to put the phone in 'Phone Mode'.
Alternatively the exact sequence of key presses to copy from phone to sim card. Remember this will be completely blind!
Any help much appreciated
Dave
