Messages
Your phone allows you to take full advantage of the text messaging services
available through mobile phone technology. You can create and receive text
messages up to a maximum of 160 characters per message.
Note: Text messaging requires network support - ensure that your service
provider contract allows SMS (Short Message Service).
Using messaging
You can use the messaging feature at any time when you are not engaged
within a call. When new messages are received, a ring tone will sound
and the character will be shown on the display. The Mailbox indicator,
located below the Select button, will also flash.
Note: You can change the melody and the volume of the incoming message
ring tone independently of the incoming call ring tone - see page 28.
