linguistic database of approximately 60,000 words and proper names. You may
also store additional words in your own user database,which is incorporated
into the T9 database.
T9 Text Input is available when you are typing text into your phone (for
example,in the Phonebook) and while using Nextel Online services.

Pause Digit Entry
When storing a number, you can program your phone so it will not only dial a

personal identification number (PIN) or password. This featureis particularly
useful for accessing automated services such as voice mail or banking systems
from your i35s phone.

Plus Dialing
Example:Let’s say you have a company voice mail accountthat you frequently
check while traveling. And, to access that account you must do the following:
• dial your work number
• press # while the voice mail greeting is being played
• enter your PIN to access your messages
You can program your phone to enter all of the above information for you by
separating each entrywith a pause. The stored data w ould look like this:
17035551234P#P1234. In this example, the first eleven digits representthe
number that must be dialed to access your voice mail. The P represents a 3
second pause. The # interrupts your greeting.The second P represents another 3
second pause. The last four digits represent your PIN.
To createa three-second pause, follow the steps below:
Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will appear
on the display screen.
NOTE: You can enter up to 20 characters in a single entry. You can
program your phone to pause for more than 3 seconds.
Performing the above step twice will program two pauses and
cause your phone to wait 6 seconds before entering the next
setofnumbers.
Plus Dialing
This feature enables you to place an internationalcall from most countries that
share Nextel’snetwork— without entering the local international access code.
