1Press Sym to display the symbols table.
2Narrow the list by pressing the key that corresponds to the character you want. For example, to enter an é, press e.
TIP The symbols and accented characters are grouped according to their similarity to the corresponding key. In some cases, the symbol is related to the alternative character on the key, not the letter. For example, to type a € or other currency symbol, press Sym + h. Why? Because the alternative character on the H key is $.
3Scroll to find the character you want.
4Tap the character to insert it.
