Text input
In cases where text input is possible, you can use the keypad to input text,
punctuation and special characters in addition to the digits 0 to 9 and the
hash and asterisk symbols. To do this, press the numerical keys repeatedly.
Example: To enter the letter "h", press the number
4 key on the keypad
twice. When entering the text, all available characters for this key are dis-
played. After a short while, the character in focus is displayed in the input
field.
Alphabetic labeling of dial keys is also useful when entering vanity num-
bers (letters associated with the phone number’s digits as indicated on the
telephone spell a name, e.g. 0700 - PATTERN = 0700 - 7288376).
Character overview (depends on the current language setting)
To speed up the input, you can confirm your entry by pressing "
i
"
on the navigator after you have selected the required character.
To enter a digit in an alphanumerical input field, press the relevant
key and hold it down. You no longer need to scroll through the entire
list of possible characters.
