General instructions

Regardless of which input method you choose, your 
phone has a function to speed up the entry of Chinese 
characters. Whenever you enter a stroke or a Pinyin 
letter, a candidate row of the most frequently used 
characters containing that stroke or relating to that letter 
appears at the bottom of the screen. 

If the character you want is not displayed in the candidate 
row, press 

 

to present another candidate row. Continue 

pressing 

 

until the character you want is displayed. 

Alternatively, you can enter the next stroke or Pinyin letter 
and a new set of characters will immediately be displayed 
in the candidate row. To go back to the previous row, 
press 

. To select a character in the candidate row, 

press the navigation key or press and hold the key 
corresponding to the number above the character you 
want to enter.

Stroke input

A Chinese character is built up of strokes. There are more 
than 30 basic strokes, which are grouped into 5 stroke 
categories. Each category is represented on the keypad 
by one of the keys 

 - 

. The Wild Card key 

, is 

used when you are not sure of which stroke to use.
