Symbols and accented characters
Enter information in a field
You can enter information in a field by typing or by pasting previously
copied information (see Cut, copy and paste information ). The Text Assist
feature works with all text fields (see Work with the Text Assist feature ).
To accept the information you entered, do one of the following:
• Tap outside the field.
• Press Enter . If a screen contains multiple fields, pressing Enter
accepts the information you have just entered and moves the cursor to
the next field.
TIP The symbols and accented characters are grouped according to their
similarity to the corresponding key. In some cases, the symbol is related to the
alternative character on the key, not the letter. For example, to type a € or other
currency symbol, press Sym + h . Why? Because the alternative character on the
H key is $.
