Receiving messages
When you receive a message, the phone plays the ring tone that you selected, and a message icon comes on the screen of
your phone.
If you do not read the messages, this icon remains displayed on the screen. When it flashes, the memory is full.
Receiving icons, backgrounds or tunes can take several seconds. An icon is flashing when the download of your message is
in progress.
Note that you have two different possibilities for receiving MMS: automatically or manually; if « manual mode » is activated,
then you will receive only a notification in your Inbox, meaning that a MMS is available on the MMS Server; select Retrieve
in the options when you want to retrieve the MMS from the network.
For more details about automatic and retrieval modes, see « Options » on page 21.
Please contact your network provider to get more information on icons, backgrounds or tunes downloading.
Received messages are stored in the SIM card or in the phone until you choose to delete them.
