Some menu items allow entry of characters from the keypad. A given keypad button corresponds to the number printed on it. It can also be used for text entry of the letters beside it. Additional characters are available on the <*> key (i.e. * ( ) [ ] < > <Space>) and the <#> key (i.e. # . , ; : ! ? <space>) and underscore is available on the <1> key.

To enter text characters, press the key with the appropriate letter printed near it. Keep tapping it to cycle through the possible choices. For example, tapping the 2- key in a text field will first enter A. Repeated taps will change that to a B, then C, then the lower- case letters, then the number 2. Enter a space by pressing * eight times. Punctuation characters appear on the * and # keys.
