Entering Characters by Using Alphabet Mode

To enter characters by using Alphabet mode (multi-tap text
entry):

1.

Select the Alphabet mode. (See “Selecting a Character
Input Mode” on page 35.)

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 then press

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.
