Text Input
T9®
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 or up or down
repeatedly until the correct word is displayed. Continue to the
next word.
If the word you require is not in the internal dictionary then it
should be entered using the Normal ( ABC ) mode.
