Entering Characters Using Alphabet Mode

To enter characters using Alphabet Mode (multi-tap key entry):

1.

Select the Alphabet mode. (See “Selecting a Character
Input Mode” on page 44.)

2.

Press the corresponding key 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 erase

an entire word.

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.

Characters scroll in the following order:
