KEY OPERATIONS

CODE KEY

By holding down the CODE key and pushing the appropriate key, you can use the functions written in pink characters.

SHIFT KEY

By using the SHIFT key you can type capital letters, and symbols located on the upper part of keys. To type a capital “A”, hold the SHIFT key down and push the “A” key. To type a “percent” sign “%” (located above the “5”), hold the SHIFT key down and push the “5” key.

CAPS KEY

By holding down the CODE key and pressing the CAPS key, you set the machine into CAPS mode. When this mode is entered, the CAPS indicator on the display turns on. In CAPS mode, capital letters can be typed simply by pressing the char- acter keys. If number keys are pressed, numbers -- not the symbols above them -- result. For this reason, CAPS mode is particularly useful for creating messages containing many numerals and capital letters. To exit CAPS mode, hold down the CODE key and press the CAPS key.

ALT KEY

By using the ALT key you can type various symbols marked on the keys in green. To type a symbol located on the right side of a key, hold down the ALT key and press the key on which the desired symbol is marked.
