Text entry

• Press the * key to display the characters and scroll to highlight the desired character, then

press Select.

Important:

Some networks may not support all language-dependent characters.

Use special characters in phone numbers

You can enter certain special characters in the phone numbers you save. Press the * key
repeatedly to cycle through the four special characters available for phone numbers.

* This character sends command strings to the network. Contact your service provider for

more information.

+ This character is used to link a 1-touch dialing location to the number currently being entered.

p This character creates a pause that occurs when the phone dials a number. Numbers entered

to the right of this character are automatically sent as touch tones after a second pause.

w This character causes the phone to wait for you to press Send.

• WRITE WITH PREDICTIVE TEXT

Predictive text input enters text quickly. Predictive text uses a highly
compressed database (or dictionary) of common words and tries to
anticipate the word you are entering.

Watching predictive text guess a word can be confusing, so you
should disregard the screen until you enter all characters.

Example: To write “Nokia”:
