You can only delete characters when you are in input mode, either for numbers, names, or text. The [C] operates similarly to a backspace key on a computer.

2To backspace and delete an entire text or numeric field in any input mode, press and hold the [C].

ENTER A SPACE

Either with Multipress or XT9 mode, press the [#].

ENTER A SYMBOL

There may be times when you need to use a symbol that is not displayed on the keypad. Additional symbols are available by accessing a separate page.

2In the menu that appears, press Symbols to display the Symbols page.

3Select the symbol you want.

4Press [O].

ENTER NUMBERS IN TEXT BOXES

To enter numbers, use numeric mode. If you need to enter a number within a line of text, change to numeric mode to enter the number, and then change back to multipress or XT9 mode to finish entering the text.

1Select the Numeric mode by pressing and holding the [*].

2Enter the number or numbers using the keypad.

3Select the XT9 mode by pressing and holding the [*], then finish entering your text.

`NOTE

If a field permits a numeric entry only, such as a phone number, the input mode automatically defaults to numeric mode.
