Warning! Do not switch on the
phone when wireless phone use
is prohibited or when it may
cause interference or danger.
You can use the Messages menu (Menu
1) and Short Message Service (SMS) to
read, write and send text messages to
another phone in your network. You may
also be able to use the Minibrowser’s e-
mail feature to send text messages to
phones in other networks.
Important: When sending SMS
messages, your phone may
display the words Message Sent
(where service is available). This
is an indication that the message
has been sent by your phone to
the SMS network. This is not an
indication that the message has
been received at the intended
destination. For more details
about SMS services, check with
your service provider.
Note: This function can be used
only if it is supported by your
network operator or service
provider. Only devices that offer
compatible e-mail features can
receive and display messages. It
may require a separate
subscription.
WRITE A TEXT MESSAGE
You can use the Messages menu to
create and send text messages to another
mobile phone in your network, to another
mobile phone in another network, or to
an e-mail recipient. You can also save a
draft of your message in the Outbox
folder for later use.
Create and send a text message
Important: Use this method
when sending a message to
recipients in the same wireless
network. If the recipient has a
different service provider, you
may need to send the message as
an e-mail (see “Create and send
an e-mail message” on page 37).
1 From the Start screen, press Menu,
then press Select.
2 Select Text messages, then select
Write message.
3 Select either Text (up to 160
characters) or Numeric page (message
consists of phone number only).
Note: The ability to send a
numerical page may be
dependent on your wireless
network. Please contact your
service provider for more
information on text messaging in
your area.
4 Scroll to Add number, then press
Select.
