Entering Text Using the QWERTY Keyboard
Your phone has a full, slide-out QWERTY keyboard. The keyboard
is located beneath the display screen and is accessed by sliding
it open. This orients the phone's display to Landscape
(widescreen) mode. With the QWERTY keyboard, you can type
letters, numbers, punctuation, and other special characters into
text entry fields or other applications as easily as on your
computer.
To remove the battery cover:
1.
Locate the cover release latch and place your fingernail in
the opening and firmly “pop” the cover off the device
(similar to a soda can).
2.
Remove the cover. For more information, refer to
“Battery
Cover”
on page 7.
To open the device and access the keyboard:
1.
Turn the phone over to where the logo appears at the
upper-right (1).
2.
Carefully grasp the base of the phone with both hands.
3.
While holding onto both sides of the phone, use your
thumbs to push against the bottom edge of the LCD (2).
After the initial push, the LCD will then quickly slide away
to reveal the QWERTY keyboard (3). For more information,
refer to
“Accessing the QWERTY Keyboard”
on page 12.
