Some of the softkeys enable positioning and corrections to your input. For
example, the >> softkey allows you to reposition your cursor. The << softkey
allows you to delete a character or digit in an entry. Press the << softkey or the
Delete softkey if you make a mistake or need to edit an entry. The Delete softkey
allows you to edit a character or digit—it does not delete the entire entry.
Choosing a Menu Item
You can choose menu items on your Cisco IP Phone in more than one way:
• Using the Navigation button—Press the Navigation button (this is the button
with the up and down arrows) to select (or highlight) a menu item. Then press
the Select softkey.
• Using an Item Number—You can press the number key on your phone’s key
pad that corresponds to the number of the item displayed on the LCD screen.
Use this method to select any menu item that has an item number to the left
of it.
Entering Characters on Your LCD Screen
You might need to enter characters (letters and numbers) on your LCD screen. To
enter such characters, use a corresponding number key. Press the key one or more
times to display a particular letter. For example, press the 2 key one time for “a,”
twice quickly for “b,” and three times quickly for “c.” After you pause, the cursor
automatically advances to allow you to enter the next letter. Press the << softkey
if you make a mistake.
Using the Handset, Speaker and Headset
You can adjust the settings for the handset, speakerphone, and headset
individually. This section includes the following topics:
• Using the Handset, page 1-13
