Using the T9 Mode
The T9 predictive text input mode allows you to key in any 
character using single keystrokes. This text input mode is based 
on a built-in dictionary.
1. When you are in the T9 predictive text input mode, start 
entering a word by pressing keys 2 to 9. Press each key only 
once for one letter. 
Example:to enter HELLO in the T9 mode, 
press 4, 3, 5, 5 and 6.
The word that you are typing appears in the display. It may 
change with each key that you press.
2. Enter the whole word before editing or deleting the
keystrokes.
3. If the word is correct, start entering the next word.
4. Otherwise, press the 0, or key repeatedly to display
alternate word choices for the keys that you have pressed.
Example:both OF and ME have the sequence 6 and 3. The 
phone displays the most commonly used choice first.
5. Complete each word with a space by pressing the # key.
