Additional entry modes
The key selects one mode or another.
The 123 mode (numeric) inserts numbers.
The Insert symbol mode displays a list of
symbols and the figures from 1 to 0 that
correspond to them.
To enter a symbol, simply type the number
that appears above the character required,
for example: 6 for ?. The symbol is
inserted into the text and you return
automatically to Easy Message T9
mode. Several lists are accessible using
the scrolling arrows.
The ABC (multi-press) mode enters words
that do not exist in the dictionary or in
another language. To obtain a letter, hold
down the corresponding key. The letters
and numbers scroll. Release the key when
the required letter appears.

You can type capital letters, by pressing
the
*

character. The following characters will
automatically return to lowercase.
Words in capital letters
You can also choose to type a whole word
in capital letters by pressing twice on the

possible to return to lower case mode by

either the 1 key (except in numeric mode),
or using the Insert symbols mode (quick
access using # key).

generated in the word in Easy Message
T9 mode. In ABC mode, you need to
wait for the accented character to be
