To use traditional text input, repeatedly press the key marked with the letter that you want until the letter appears.
Not all characters available under a number key are printed on the key. The characters available depend on the Language you have chosen. See "Phone settings," p. 26.
To enter a letter that is on the same key as the previous one, wait until the cursor appears, or press any of the scroll keys, and then enter the letter.
