presses required:
Press a keyonce for anyletter 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

correctlybefore continuing on to the next word bypressing # or c.
If the combination of letters typed has produced a word which is not

the one you require, press 0 repeatedlyuntil 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 rarelyused word) you should enter it using the

Normal (U) mode.
