Signal strength

You can check the strength of your signal by
the signal indicator (

) on the LCD

screen of your phone. Signal strength can
vary, particularly inside buildings. Moving
near to a window may improve reception.

Entering text

You can enter alphanumeric characters by
using the phone’s keypad. For example,
storing names in the phonebook, writing a
message, creating a personal greeting. The
following text input methods are available in
the phone.

T9 mode

This mode lets you enter words with only one
keystroke per letter. Each key on the keypad
has more than one letter. The T9 mode
automatically compares your keystrokes with
an internal dictionary to determine the
correct word, thus requiring far fewer
keystrokes than the traditional ABC mode.
This is sometimes known as predictive text.

ABC mode

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

123 mode (Number mode)

Type numbers using one keystroke per
number. To change to 123 mode in a text
entry field, press the

key until 123

mode is displayed.
