Nokia 6160 manual Entering letters and numbers, ABC mode

IMPORTANT!

Official emergency numbers vary by location (e.g. 911). Only one emergency number is programmed into your phone to be dialed automatically by Emergency key 9, which may not be the proper number in all circumstances.

Entering letters and numbers

You can enter letters, as well as numbers, when storing information into your phone by using your phone’s keypad. When you see the letter you wish to enter, simply press the key associated with that letter until it appears on the display (numbers also appear).

ABC mode

When you need to enter letters into your phone, it will

automatically switch over to mode.

Your phone displays the icon to indicate that your phone is in ABC mode. It also displays when you are viewing names rather than numbers.

When is displayed, you can enter these characters:

While you’re editing a name, the V key will move the cursor to the left, and W will move it to the right. Press Clear to correct any mistakes.
