12 Getting to know your phone
Entering letters and characters
You can enter letters, for example, when you add
names to the phonebook, write text messages or
enter WAP addresses.
Apart from the way you normally enter letters
in your phone, using multitap input, you can use
T9™ Text Input for entering text messages
if the input language you select supports this.
T9 Text Input is a predictive input method and
is a quicker way to write texts.
Input languages
Before you start entering letters, you need to select
the input languages that you want to use when writing.
To select input languages
1. Scroll to Settings,
YES, Language, YES, Input, YES.
2. Scroll to the language or alphabet that you want
to use for entering letters and press for each
language you want.
3. Press
YES to exit the menu.
When writing, you can switch to one of your
selected input languages by pressing and then
selecting Language. See “The list of options”
on page 14.

When saving names in the phonebook or when
writing WAP addresses, you enter letters using
