Predictive text input is based on a built-in dictionary to which you can add new words. Predictive text input is not available for all languages.

  1. Select Options icon > Activate predictive text.

  2. To write the desired word, use the keys 2-9. Select each key once for each letter. For example, to write Nokia when the English dictionary is selected, select 6 for N, 6 for o, 5 for k, 4 for i, and 2 for a.

    The word suggestion changes after each key selection.

  3. If the word is not correct, select * repeatedly, until the correct match is displayed. If the word is not in the dictionary, select Spell, and enter the word using traditional text input mode, and select OK.

    If ? is displayed after the word, the word is not in the dictionary. To add a word to the dictionary, select *, enter the word using traditional text input mode, and select OK.

  4. To insert a space, select 0. To insert a common punctuation mark, select 1, and then select * repeatedly, until the correct punctuation mark is displayed.
