The handset dial keys are used to enter characters and numbers. Each dial key has multiple characters
assigned to it. The available character entry modes are, LetterWise (KX-FC235AL only), Alphabet,
Numeric, Greek, Extended 1, Extended 2, and Cyrillic. When in Alphabet (ABC), Greek (F), Extended
1 (G), Extended 2 (H), or Cyrillic (I) character entry modes, you can select which character is
entered by pressing a dial key repeatedly.
L When the handset displays the character entry screen:
– Press {<} or {>} to move the cursor.
– Press dial keys to enter characters and numbers.
– Press {C/T} to erase the character or number highlighted by the cursor. Press and hold {C/T} to
erase all characters or numbers.
– Press {*} to switch between uppercase and lowercase.
– To enter another character located on the same dial key, press {>} to move the cursor to the next
space, then press the appropriate dial key. (This is not necessary when entering text in LetterWise
mode.)
