Text Input

Using this mode of text entry dramatically reduces the number of key

presses required:
Press a key once for any letter you require on that key. The desired

letter may not be displayed. Continue pressing other keys until the

end of a word is reached; then check that the word has been typed

correctly before continuing on to the next word.
If the combination of letters typed has produced a word which is not

the one you require, press 0 repeatedly until the correct word is

displayed. Continue to the next word.
If the word you require is not in the internal dictionary (i.e. It is a

proper noun or a rarely used word) then it should be entered using

the Normal (U) mode.

Other Text Modes

To access any of the other text entry modes use A to cycle through

until the desired mode is displayed in the Information Area.
When using Normal (U), Greek (V) or Extended (W) text entry

modes, each time a key is pressed in quick succession it will display

the next character available on that key (or if the key is pressed and

held down it will cycle through the available characters). Releasing

the key, or pressing another key will enter the currently displayed

character and the cursor will move to the next position.

Editing Text

Pressing e will move you up or down one text line (or field in

Phonebook). Pressing f will move you left or right one character (or

to the first character of the previous or next word when using T9

entry mode). When the cursor is moved over a character and another

key pressed this will insert the new character immediately before the

selected character. Pressing B will delete the character to the left of

the cursor or delete the current line when pressed and held.
