TIP

ENTER NUMBERS IN TEXT BOXES

To enter numbers, use Numeric mode. If you need to enter a number

within a line of text, change to Numeric mode to enter the number, and

then change back to Multipress or T9 mode to finish entering the text.

1 Change to Numeric mode by pressing and

holding the * key.

2 Enter the number or numbers using the keypad.
3 Change back to Multipress or T9 input mode by

briefly pressing the * key, then finish entering

your text.

If a field permits a numeric entry only, such as a phone

number, the input mode automatically defaults to Numeric

mode.

ENTER PUNCTUATION IN MULTIPRESS MODE

Press 1 repeatedly until you see the punctuation mark that you want.

To see all of the available symbols, press and hold the # key.

ENTER PUNCTUATION IN T9 MODE

In a text box when in T9 text entry mode, do the following:

1 Press 1, and select from a list of common

punctuation.

DELETE CHARACTERS

You can only delete characters when you are in input mode, either

for numbers, names, or text. The Clear key operates similarly to a

“backspace” key on a computer.

1 To backspace and delete a single character in

any input mode, press Clear key C.

2 To backspace and delete an entire text or

numeric field in any input mode, press and hold

the Clear key C.

ENTER A SPACE

In Multipress or T9 mode, press the # key.

ENTER A SYMBOL

There may be times when you need to use a symbol that is not

displayed on the keypad. Additional symbols are available by accessing

a separate page.

1 Press and hold the * key.
2 In the menu that appears, press Symbols to

display the Symbols page.

3 Select the symbol you want.
4 Press O [OK].
