Sending and Receiving Text Messages

This chapter describes SMS, what you need to do before you can send messages, how you send

messages, and how you read messages. This service is network dependent.

Text Messages

The Short Message Service (SMS) function allows

you to send and receive text messages that contain up

to 160 characters. Text messages can be received

when the phone is in standby mode, when you are en-

gaged in a call, or when incoming calls are diverted to

another phone number. Also, if you have had your

phone turned off for a while the network will keep

track of the message and send it to your phone as soon

as it is turned on.

After a message is received, it is left in the phone’s

memory. The message remains in the phone’s memory

until you read it. You can even turn off the phone and

the message will remain intact. If you, on the other

hand, change SIM Card, you will lose the unread mes-

sage. This is because messages should be personal.

Note! You need to set the service center number bef-

ore you can send any messages. If you only want to

receive messages, you do not need to do anything.
