Entering Characters by Tapping the Keypad

To enter characters by tapping the keypad:

1.Select the Abc mode (See “Selecting a Character Input Mode” on page 41).

2.Press the corresponding keys repeatedly until the desired letter appears (for example, to enter the word

“Bill,” press twice, three times, three

times, and three times again). (If you make a

mistake, press to erase a single character. Press and

hold to delete an entire entry.)

By default, the first letter of an entry is capitalized and the following letters are lowercased. After a character is entered, the cursor automatically advances to the next space after two seconds or when you enter a character on a different key.
