■ Instant messaging (IM)
Instant messaging (network service)
is a way to send short, simple text
messages to online users.
Before you can use instant
messaging, you must subscribe to
the service. To check the availability
and costs, and to subscribe to the
service, contact your service
provider, from whom you also
receive your unique ID, password,
and settings.
To set the required settings for the
instant messaging service, see
Connect. settings in ”Access the
menu” p. 19. The icons and texts on
the display may vary, depending on

Depending on the network, the
active instant messaging
conversation may consume the
phone battery faster, and you may
need to connect the phone to a
charger.
