3. Text entry
You can use two methods for entering
text and numbers: standard mode and
predictive text mode. Select Clear to
backspace the cursor and delete a
character. Select and hold Clear to
backspace continuously and delete
characters.
■ Standard mode
Standard mode is the only way to enter
text into the contacts list and to
rename caller groups.
Text (Abc)
• Press a key once to insert the first
letter on the key, twice for the
second letter, etc. If you pause
briefly, the last letter in the display
is accepted and your device awaits
the next entry.
• Press 0 to enter a space, thereby
accepting a completed word.
• Press 1 to insert a period into your
message.
• Press * to display a complete list of
special characters.
• Press and hold # to bring up the
Editor settings (Number mode,
Dictionary on or Dictionary off,
Writing language).
Numbers (123)
To switch to 123 mode from Abc mode,
press and hold # at any message entry
screen to bring up the Editor settings.
Select Number mode, and the device
returns to the message entry screen
and switches the Abc icon in the upper
left corner of the display to the 123
icon (or back).
Punctuation and special
characters
While at any text entry screen, press *
to display special characters (press and
hold * if predictive text is on). Press *
again to cycle through all available
characters. Scroll to navigate through
the list of special characters. With a
character highlighted, select Insert to
insert the character into your message.
■ Predictive text mode
Much faster than the standard mode
method, predictive text input enables
you to write messages quickly using
your keypad and the built-in
dictionary. In predictive text mode,
your phone predicts the words as you
enter them.
