To form a word in T9 mode, press the numeric keys that contain the
letters you want. As you enter letters, T9 analyses your keypresses and
attempts to complete the word. For example, to enter the word “shoe,”

Press a key only once for each letter. If there is more than one
choice in the T9 dictionary for your entry, a list of available
words is displayed.
• Press the # key to enter a space after the word is entered, or
click one of the available words with which a space is added
automatically.
• If you do not see the desired word, click Add Word? from the
list, and then enter the word using Multipress.
• To use punctuation, press 1 , and select from a list of common
punctuation marks.
Use Numeric mode
If a text box permits a numeric entry only, such as a phone number, the
input mode automatically defaults to Numeric mode. However, if you
need to enter numbers within a line of text, change to Numeric mode,
and then change back to Multipress or T9 mode to finish entering the
text.
