Viewing/Editing My Information
Using T9® Text Input
Your i60c phone has embedded software, called T9® Text Input, that makes 
typing on a phone keypad much like typing on a computer keyboard: it 
eliminates the traditional “multi-tap” method of text entry. As you type, you 
press only one key per letter. T9 Text Input matches your keystrokes to words in 
its linguistic database of approximately 60,000 words and proper names. You 
may also store additional words you frequently use in your own user database, 
which is incorporated into the T9 database.
T9 Text Input is available when you are typing information into your phone (for 
example, in the Phonebook or Datebook) and while using Nextel Wireless Web 
services.
T9 Text Input Entry Modes
Four text entry modes are available in T9 Text Input: Alpha, Word, Symbols, 
and Numeric. When you are using T9 Text Input, an icon in the top right corner 
1From the idle screen, press q and #.
Or,
Press q and use the S to scroll to My Info. 
2Press Q to scroll to My Info. Press C under SELECT. The My 
Information screen displays. 
3Use S to scroll through the fields.
4To edit the displayed information, press C under CHANGE. Edit 
information as desired, and press C under OK to save the changes.
To return to the idle screen, press C under EXIT.

NOTE: * T9 icons do not display while you are using Nextel Wireless 
Web services.
Choosing a Text Entry Mode on Wireless Web
When you are using Nextel Wireless Web services, T9 Text Input becomes 
available whenever you access a screen that requires you to enter text. The right 
display option on your the phone’s screen indicates your current T9 Text Input

NUM for Numeric mode
To change text entry modes, press the C under text entry mode until the desired 
mode displays.
NOTE: The rest of the instructions for using T9 Text Input apply only to 
entering text in applications other than Nextel Wireless Web 
applications (for example, Phonebook). See the 
Nextel Wireless 
Web User’s Guide available on nextel.com, for instructions on 
using T9 Text Input for Nextel Wireless Web services.

Using T9® Text Input
Using Alpha Mode
To enter text (letters and numbers) while in Alpha text entry mode:
 Press any key on the alphanumeric keypad to enter the letters and numbers 
on that key. For example, to enter the letter Y, press 9 three times.
 Type a letter then press Q to activate Caps Lock or type a letter then press 
R to deactivate Caps Lock.
 Pause briefly to leave the currently displayed character in place and move 
on to the next place in the text entry field.
 Press P to create a space in the text entry field.
 Press C under DELETE to delete one character. Press and hold C under 
DELETE to delete an entire entry.
Using Word Mode
T9 Text Input software replaces conventional multi-tap text entry, enabling 
users to compose text messages with only one key press per letter. Since each 
key on a telephone keypad has more than one letter, pressing the number 5 could 
represent “J,” “K,” or “L.” T9 automatically compares users’ key presses to a 
linguistic database to determine the correct word. For example, entering the 
word “call” into a wireless phone takes just four key presses with T9, compared 
to ten using conventional multi-tap entry.
Special Key Functions
Some of your phone’s keys assume different functions while in T9 Text Input 
Word mode.
Backspace and Erase
Press C under DELETE once to backspace 
or to erase a single character. Press and hold 
C under DELETE to erase the entire text 
entry field.
SpacePress R once to accept a word and insert a 
space when entering text.
