T9 : Enters words using the phone’s word database, which allows you to press the corresponding keys only once for each letter regardless of its position on the face of the key.

“T9 EN” indicates upper case letters will be entered. “T9 en” indicates lower case letters will be entered. “T9 En” indicates first character will be upper case letters and the others will be lower case letters. “T9 HLP” indicates help screens on the handset.

SYM : Enters symbols.

123 : Enters numbers.

Entering text using “Eng” mode.

Use Eng mode to enter characters using the multi-tap method. Each key cycles through the characters printed on

its face (For example, cycles through “A”, “B”, “C” and “2”).

When you have the correct letter or number in position on the screen, wait for two seconds for the cursor to automatically advance to the next space or manually

move the cursor to the left ot right by pressing or .

For example, to type “LG”, you would use the following multi-tap sequence on the keypad.

Press three times to enter the letter L

Press one time to enter the letter G

Entering text using T9 mode.

T9 analyzes letters you type and tries to create a word. The word may change as you type - don’t worry about what’s on the screen until after you finish the word.

T9 mode uses an intelligent software protocol that allows you to enter text with fewer key presses than the multi-tap method. T9 determines the word by matching the keys you pressed with words in an internal database and displays the matching word that is used most often.
