L For character entry when entering the name for phonebook, etc., see page 64.
The dial keys are used to enter characters and numbers. Each dial key has multiple characters assigned to it. The available character entry modes are, LetterWise, Alphabet, Numeric, Greek, and Extended. When in Alphabet (ABC), Greek (F), or Extended (G) character entry modes, you can select which character is entered by pressing a dial key repeatedly.
L When the unit displays the character entry screen:
–Press {<} or {>} to move the cursor.
–Press dial keys to enter characters and numbers.
–Press {C/T} to erase the character or number highlighted by the cursor. Press and hold {C/T} to erase all characters or numbers.
–Press {*} to switch between uppercase and lowercase.
–To enter another character located on the same dial key, press {>} to move the cursor to the next space, then press the appropriate dial key. (This is not necessary when entering text in LetterWise mode.)
Character entry modes
Several character entry modes are available. When the unit displays the character entry screen, press {k}, then select a character entry mode, and press {>}. The default mode is Alphabet.
LetterWise character table (for English)
LetterWise is a simplified text entry system which suggests the most likely letter to follow the previously entered text. Text can be input faster because the number of key presses are reduced. You can change which language is used for LetterWise character entry (page 32).
L Each time you press a dial key, LetterWise will suggest a character. If the suggested character is incorrect, press {#} repeatedly to display the desired character.
