Entering Characters by Tapping the Keypad
To enter characters by tapping the keypad:
1. Select the Alpha mode (See “Selecting a Character Input
Mode” on page 65).
2. Press the corresponding keys repeatedly until the
desired letter appears.
Ⅲ Once for the first letter
Ⅲ Twice for the second letter
Ⅲ And so on
3. To enter the word “Bill,” press twice, three
times, three times, and three times again.
(If you make a mistake, press to erase a single
character. Press and hold to delete an entire entry.)
Note:
Since the T9 prediction listing starts at three letters, when
working with two letters, use the (0) key to begin cycling
through possible two-letter choices. If, as an example, you
type the word Go (keys 4 and 6), T9 prediction might provide
the word In, but by pressing the (0) key you can cycle through
to the next possible word choice, which is Go.
Tip:
When entering text in this mode, press the * (Shift) key to
change letter capitalization (abc > Abc > ABC) used on the
current character.
