Entering Text

When using your phone, you will often need to enter

text, such as when storing a name in Phone Book,

creating your personal greeting or scheduling events

on your calendar. You can enter alphanumeric

characters by using your phone’s keypad.

Your phone has the following text input modes:

♦T9 mode

This mode allows you to enter words with only one

keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has

more than one letter; for example, when you press

the

5 key once, J, K or L displays. T9 mode

automatically compares your keystrokes with an

internal linguistic dictionary to determine the correct

word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the

traditional Alphabet mode.

♦Alphabet mode

This mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the

key labeled with the letter you want. Press the key

once, twice, three or four times until it displays.

♦Number mode

This mode allows you to enter numbers.

♦Symbol mode

This mode allows you to enter various symbols and

special characters.

Changing the Text Input Mode

When you are in a field that allows characters to be

entered, you will notice the text input mode indicator

on the display.
