Use the Character Map in Windows to locate characters and their ANSI/ASCII codes.

According to documentation, switch to English input language, and try these combinations on numeric pad:

<Alt+8960> for “⌀”

<Alt+0179> for “³”

Or enter 2300 directly to Word document, then press immediately <Alt+X>, or B3 then <Alt+X>.
