User input identified as the number/symbol displayed results in display of at least one further screen image related to chosen alternative. At least the first displayed screen (S) includes preferably at least one additional group of symbols (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) resembling keys, extending as a vertical and/or horizontal row of keys, each key symbol preferably only including an icon and/or a short descriptive text, said group(s) preferably related to services for control and setting of parameters related to the communication equipment used.
