3.2.5 Virtual keyboards

AVIC-S2 is designed in a way that you only need to enter letters or numbers when it
is inevitable. In these cases a full screen keyboard pops up that can easily be
operated with your fingertips. You can choose between a separate ABC and numeric
keypad, or a set of QWERTY-type keyboards that contain both letters and numbers.
AVIC-S2 will remember your last choice and offer it the next time you need to enter
data.

The alphabetic keyboards in AVIC-S2 do not contain special characters, because
you do not need to enter accents when searching for a destination. Type only the
base letters (the letter most similar to the accented one) and AVIC-S2 will search for
all their combinations in the database (e.g. for the French street ‘Cité Bergère ’ you
only need to type ‘Cite Bergere’, and the rest is done by the program).

When you type in POI or track log names, AVIC-S2 will automatically turn all initials
into capitals to create names that look pleasant.

3.2.5.1 ABC-type keyboards
These keyboards contain only letters (Latin, Greek or Cyrillic). If you wish to enter
numbers, you need to tap the Keys (

) button to switch to the numeric keyboard.

Use Backspace (arrow pointing left) to delete the last letter you have entered if you
have made a mistake, tap Space to enter more words, and hit Done to finish entering
the text.

This type of keyboard has large, finger-friendly buttons.

Note: If you have chosen a program language that uses Latin letters, only the ABC
keyboard appears. If you choose the Greek language, an additional keyboard
appears with Greek letters. Similarly Cyrillic letters are available when Russian is
chosen in Setup / Languages (Page 64
).

If you are used to computer keyboards, you may consider trying one of the
QWERTY-type keypads.
