The 0 (zero) key on the keypad functions as the space key. The word “Space” is printed on the keypad overlay to indicate this.
The decimal point key also functions as the Shift key. The word “Shift” is printed on the keypad overlay to indicate this. In the alpha character entry mode (any screen that accepts alpha characters), this key toggles between “all uppercase letters” and “all lowercase letters.” When an up arrow (▲) displays in the last position, the up- percase mode is activated.
