Enter punctuation or other characters
You can enter punctuation, specials characters, and symbols
while writing text messages, entering notes in the organizer,
creating phone book entries, or Internet browsing.
You can add punctuation or special characters by these
methods:
• Press 1 repeatedly while in ABC mode to cycle through some of the most common
punctuation marks and special characters.
•Press * to activate the special characters list. A screen appears displaying the
available special characters.
• Use the scroll keys to highlight the desired character, then press Insert.
Important: Some networks may not support all language-dependent
characters.
Use special characters in phone numbers
You can enter certain special characters as a part of the phone numbers you save to the
phone book. Pressing * repeatedly cycles through the four special characters available
when saving a phone number.
* Sends command strings to the network. Contact your service provider for more
information.
+ Links a 1-touch dialing location to the number currently being entered.
p Creates a pause that occurs when the phone dials a number. Numbers entered to the
right of this special character are automatically sent as touch tones after a 2.5-
second pause.
w Causes the phone to wait for you to press Send.
• WRITE WITH PREDICTIVE TEXT
Using predictive text input is a quick way to enter text, using
a highly compressed database (or dictionary) of common
words that tries to anticipate the word as you enter it.
Watching predictive text guess a word can be confusing,
disregard the screen until all characters have been entered.
Example: To write “Nokia”:
What you press What you see
Press 6 - N O
Press 6 - o On
Press 5 - k Onl
Press 4 - i Onli
Press 2 - a Nokia
