Phones Supporting Old Character Bitmaps
All phones other than the Mitel 52xx/53xx IP phones, the 8660 IP phone, and the 8528, 8568,
and 8560 digital telephones are unable to support all of the newer character bitmaps required to
fully support the Canadian French and Mexican Spanish languages. However, they continue to
support the limited subset of characters that were available prior to v4.0. When using these
other phones, the following charts show which characters the user will enter depending on the
number of times each dialpad button is pressed.
