Text input mode
The T9
®
Text input method enables you to enter text faster and
easier. You only need to press a key once for any letter you require
on that key. The desired letter may not be displayed. Continue
pressing other keys until the end of a word is reached. The program
searches its built-in dictionary to predict the word that most closely
matches your key presses. If the combination of letters typed has
produced a word which is not the one you require, press [5]
repeatedly until the correct word is displayed. In case the required
word is not in the internal dictionary, press [6] (Spell) to spell the
required word if “- - -” appears while pressing [5] to search for the
word, or use Multi-tap mode instead.
For example, to enter “Hello!” in T9
®
mode, press keys as follows.
