Using T9 Mode
T9 is a predictive text input mode based on a built-in dictionary that allows
you to key in characters using a single keystroke. Your phone selects the
most likely word based on your keystroke combinations.
To enter a word in T9 mode:
1. Start entering a word by pressing the numeric keys. Press each key
only once for each letter.
Example : To enter “HELLO”, press
[ ], [ ], [ ], [ ] and [ ].
As you type, the characters on the screen change as the built-in
dictionary matches your keystrokes to commonly used words. Enter all
letters in the word without editing or deleting the keystrokes.
2. If the word displayed is not correct, press [ ] to display an alternative
choice. Continue until the correct word displays or no choices remain, at
which time you can add the word to the phone’s dictionary (see below).
3. Press [ ] to insert a space then start entering the next word.
To add a new word to the T9 dictionary:
1. When you press [ ] on the last alternative word available, the left
soft key changes to Spell . Press < Spell > and enter the word you want.
