Entering Text from Your Handset

You can use the number keypad on your phone to enter text by referring to the letters printed on each number key. When you press the number key in a text entry field, the phone displays the first letter printed on the number key. Press the number key twice to display the second letter and three times to display the third. Capital letters are displayed first, then lower case letters, then the number on the key.

If two letters in a row use the same number key, enter the first letter, then use #/> to move the cursor to the next position to enter the second letter. For example, to enter the word “Movies”:

1. Press 6 once to enter M.

2. Use #/> to move the cursor to the right.

3. Press 6 six times to enter o.

4.Press 8 six times to enter v.

5.Press 4 six times to enter i.

6.Press 3 five times to enter e.

7.Press 7 eight times to enter s.
