number key on which the letter appears. To enter the
first letter on the number key, press the key once, to
enter the second letter, press the key twice, and so
on. The letter entered most recently is underlined
until you have completed the key presses for the
letter and moved on to the next one.
For example:
• To enter the letter “i” press 444.
• To enter the word “maria,” press 6, 2,
777, 444, 2.
If you enter two letters consecutively in a word, which
are located on the same key, pause after entering
the first letter and wait until the underline disappears
before entering the next letter.
For example:
• To enter the word “anna,” press 2, 66
pause until the underline disappears, press
66 again and then press 2.
z Tip: This pause is called the multitap time out,
and you can adjust the length of the pause
between key presses. See below.

Entering text in T9 mode
To save time when you are writing a message you
can use Tegic T9 predictive text entry. This is a built in
dictionary feature which guesses words by the
sequence of letters you are typing.
If you use T9, you only have to press each key once.
The letters change as you type, so it is important that
you ignore what is displayed on the screen until you
have finished typing completely.
