Alpha-Numeric Keyboard
Letters of the alphabet, symbols, punctuation, and
numbers, when available, displays on the navigation
screen as an alpha or numeric keyboard. The alpha
keyboard displays when the system requires entry
of a city or street name.
All characters are touch-sensitive screen buttons.
Touch a character to select it.
A-Y (Accent Alphabet): Select to enter letters with
accent symbols. This button may toggle to A-Z.
A-Z (Alphabet): Select to enter letters from the
alphabet. This button may toggle to A-Y.
0-9 (Numbers): Select to enter numbers.
U (Space): Select to enter a space between
characters or the words of a name.
Backspace: Select if an incorrect character has
been entered.
To make name entries easier, the system only highlights
the characters that can follow the last one entered.
For example, if a Z is entered, a T may not be available
for selection.
If a name does not display after entry, it may need to be
entered differently or the map DVD disc may not contain
that information. See Database Coverage Explanations
on page 559
for more information.
