Psion 3a Series - Changing the Displayed City or Country

Changing the displayed city or country
You can change the city or country currently displayed in three ways:
• Position the highlight on either the city or the country line and press the <—> keys.
These keys step through the alphabetical lists of cities and countries.
• Position the highlight on either the city or the country and start typing the name of
the city or country you want to find. As you press each key. the cursor moves to the
right, and the Series 3a will try to find a name which matches the letters you have
typed.
The Delete key deletes the last letter typed, moving the cursor to the left. Use Esc to
move the cursor back to the start of the city or country name, if you want to type a
different one.
If at any point the Series 3a can't find a city /country to match the letters you've
typed, it will beep.
If you're typing in country names, the capital cities are displayed, together with their
time, dial code and so on.
• You can look at all of the cities World knows about for a particular country. Position
to a city in the country you want, then press the • key (or select 'Current country
only' on the 'Edit' menu). This locks World to this country, displaying the text
(only) after the country name. While locked, you can only skip from one city to
the next, by using the -»key. When you have found the city you are looking for,
press the • key to release the lock. (Most other keys also release the lock.)
The clock on the left-hand side changes to show the time in the city currently shown.
The position of the city is marked on the map. and the dial code, distance and
sunrise/sunset are updated, after a short pause.

A small number of cities are split into more than one area because they have more
than one area code for dialling. London, for example, is split into London Inner and
London Outer.
Country names
These countries are stored in the following way:
• USA, not United States of America
• United Kingdom, not UK, GB, England etc.
pg" A few small countries may be shown only as a city, in the country whose national
dial codes they share, Andorra, for example, is shown with France as the country
name.
Setting your home city
1. Position to the city you wish to set as your home city.
2. Select the 'Set home city' option on the 'Special" menu.
3. Press Y to confirm your choice and your home city will be set.
The 'Set home city'option has the same effect as the 'Home city' option in Time, and it
can cause the current time to change. It is included in World for the sake of convenience.
If you travel, set a new home city whenever you change country, or move to a different
time zone, to keep the time and dial codes correct
