Muting/Sending Key Tones

These options allow you to turn the key tones off or
on. If the Mute keys option is selected, your phone
does not transmit the key tones.

Note: To communicate with answering machines or

computerised telephony systems, the Send
keys
option must be selected.

Using the SMS Service

If you receive an SMS (Short Message Service)
message during a call, the message icon (

)

appears in the display.

After you have finished your call, you can read the
message; refer to page 63 for further details.

Entering Text

When storing a name in the phonebook, creating
your personal greeting or scheduling events in your
calendar, you will need to enter text.

You are provided with the following text input
modes.

T9 mode
This mode allows you to enter words with only one
keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad has
more than one letter – when you press the

key

once, J, K or L may be displayed. The T9 mode
automatically compares your keystrokes with an
internal linguistic dictionary to determine the correct
word, thus requiring far fewer keystrokes than the
traditional ABC mode.

ABC mode
This mode allows you to enter letters by pressing the
key labelled with the required letter once, twice or
three times until the letter is displayed.

Number mode
This mode allows you to enter numbers.

Symbolic mode
This mode allows you to enter special characters.
