You may delete or add lines to the Address and
Note fields by using the delete or enter keys. To
save changes and go back to the Contacts direc-
tory main view, press Close.

The +, #, *, p, w, -, [space] characters

The communicator allows you to insert special
tones or pauses within a string of numbers for
communications that require more complex
input.

You can enter numbers and the following char-
acters in the Tel, DTMF and Fax fields.

Tel field: +, #, *, p, w, -, [space]

DTMF field: #, *, p, w, -, [space]

Fax field: +, -, [space]

You may also enter these characters in alternate
Tel, DTMF and Fax fields - for example, Tel (office).

For information on the functions of these char-
acters see table 3-1.

When storing phone numbers or DTMF (touch
tone) sequences, you can use hyphens and spaces
to customize the appearance. This will not affect
the way the numbers or DTMF tones will be dialed.

The “+” character

When sending SMS messages, some GSM1900
networks require that a “+” (plus) character pre-
cede the area code and phone number. As the
communicator has a specific place for GSM tele-
phone numbers (Tel (GSM)), it is recommended
that you enter all GSM phone numbers in the
format:

+1-area code-7 digit number.
