Using T9 Mode
T9 is a predictive text input mode that allows you to
key in any character using single keystrokes. This
text input mode is based on a built-in dictionary.
To enter a word in T9 mode:
1. When you are in T9 mode, start entering a word
by pressing the 2 to 9 keys. Press each key only
once for each letter.
The word that you are typing appears on the
display. It may change with each key that you
press.
2. Enter the whole word before editing or deleting
the keystrokes.
3. If the word is correct, start entering the next
word. Otherwise, press the 0 key, or the Up or
Down key repeatedly to display alternative word
choices for the keys that you have pressed.
Example: Both “of” and “me” have the sequence of
6 and 3. The phone displays the most
commonly use choice first.
4. Insert a space by pressing the key.
5. Continue entering the next word.
To add a new word into the T9 dictionary:
1. After pressing the keys corresponding to the
word you want to add, press the 0 key or the
Down key to display the alternative words.
2. When you press the 0 key or the Down key on
the last alternative word, the display shows Add
on the bottom line. Press the Add soft key.
