• Abc — Enter letters, numbers, and symbols by repeatedly pressing each key until
the desired character (as shown on the key) appears in the display. ABC mode

– abc — Enter all lower case letters
• 123 — Enter numbers by pressing the corresponding key on the keypad.

symbol in the Symbols pop-up window.
The current text entry mode (T9 Word, Abc, ABC, 123, or Symbols) is indicated in
the lower part of a text entry screen. To change the text entry mode, do the
following:

Using T9 ® Mode
T9 Word recognizes commonly used words for the numeric sequence of key presses

method of text entry (Abc) and requires only one key press per letter of the word that
you’re spelling.
