Delete text
To delete text, you can use either option.
• Select Clear to backspace the cursor and delete a character.
• Select and hold Clear to backspace continuously and delete characters.
■ Predictive text input
Predictive text input allows you to write messages quickly using your keypad and
the built-in dictionary. It is much faster than the standard mode method,
because for each letter, you only press the corresponding key on your keypad
once.
Activate and deactivate
To active the predictive text input, at any text entry screen, select
Dictionary and the desired dictionary language.
To deactivate the predictive text input at any text entry screen, select
Dictionary > Dictionary off.
Enter text
The illustration below simulates your display each time a key is pressed. For

the previous word in the list of matches, select Previous.
• If ? appears after a word, select
• Press 1 to insert a period into your message.
• Press and hold * to display special characters. Press * again to cycle through
all available characters.
