Your phone provides convenient ways to enter words, letters, punctuation, and numbers

whenever you are prompted to enter text (for example, when adding a Contacts entry and when

using Picture Mail and SMS Text Messaging).

Entering Characters Using T9 Text Input

T9 Text Input lets you enter text in your phone by pressing keys just once per letter. (To select

the T9 Word mode when entering text, see “Selecting a Character Input Mode” above.)

T9 Text Input analyzes the letters you enter using an intuitive word database and creates a

suitable word. (The word may change as you type.) To accept a word and insert a space, press

Space #.

If you make a mistake, press BACK to erase a single character. Press and hold BACK to delete

an entire entry.

Adding a Word to the T9 Database

If a word you want to enter is not displayed as an option when you are using T9 Text Input, you

To add a word to the database:

Using Alphabet Mode” on the next page.)

3. Press Save (left softkey). The word will appear as an option the next time you scroll through

options during T9 Text Input.
