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.

6.Press [3] five times to enter e.

7.Press [7] eight times to enter s.

8. Press [select/

] to end your

text entry.

 

If you make a mistake while entering a name, use [*/tone/<] or [#/>] to move

the cursor to the incorrect character. Press [menu/clear] to erase the wrong character, and then enter the correct character. To delete all characters, press and hold [menu/clear].
