■ Predictive text input
Predictive text input allows you to write text quickly using the phone keypad and 
a built-in dictionary.
1. Start writing a word using the 2 to 9 keys. Press each key only once for one 
letter. The phone displays * or the letter if it separately has a meaning as a 
word. The entered letters are displayed underlined.
If you selected Word suggestions as prediction type, the phone starts to predict 
the word you are writing. After you enter a few letters, and if these entered 
letters are not a word, the phone tries to predict longer words. Only the 
entered letters are displayed underlined.
To insert a special character, press and hold *, or select Options > Insert 
symbol. Scroll to a character, and select Use.
2. When you finish writing the word and it is correct, to confirm it, press 0 to add 
space.
If the word is not correct, press * repeatedly, or select Options > Matches. 
When the word that you want appears, select Use.
If the ? character is displayed after the word, the word you intended to write is 
not in the dictionary. To add the word to the dictionary, select Spell. Complete 
the word (traditional text input is used), and select Save.
