1. Using your Z-Pad

Use the directional pad or the left stick to move around and select items on the screen. You can move up or down, right or left. The item you select is highlighted. To choose the item, click on it by pressing the Yes button (the #1 button). To cancel and go back to the previous screen, press the Go Back button (the #2 button). Hold down the Home button to go back to the home screen. Or press the Home button briefly to pause and resume games during game play. You can use the home button at any time, except when your Zeebo is communicating with the ZeeboNet (for example, when downloading a game). Other controls on the Z-Pad are for special functions and playing games. In situations where you need these controls, on-screen instructions will show you how to use them. See the Zeebo User Manual for additional tips.


2. Typing with the on-screen keyboard

In cases where you need to enter information such as your name or a credit card number, the on-screen keyboard will be displayed. Use the directional pad or left stick on your Z-Pad to move up, down, right and left and highlight keys on the keyboard. Press the Yes (#1) button on your Z-Pad to click on the key. Use the space bar, the backspace key and other keys just as you would on a regular keyboard.


3. Typing lower-case characters, numbers and symbols with the on-screen keyboard

You can shift the keyboard from upper-case letters to lower-case letters to numbers and symbols using the two shift keys in the lower left of the keyboard. Click on the abc/ABC key on the lower left to display lower/upper case letters. Click on the 123/#+= key on the lower left to display numbers and symbols.


4. Typing accented and special characters using the on-screen keyboard

You can enter special or accented characters by selecting the standard character on the on-screen keyboard and pressing the #3 button on your Z-Pad. For example, to enter ç or à, enter the 'c' or 'a' on the keyboard and press the #3 button.
