Receiving SMS Messages
■
an alert tone sounds each time a new message is
received (this can be disabled, refer to page 5.5) then
the message is automatically stored on the SIM. The
number of stored messages (including messages to
be sent) is dependant on the capacity of the SIM,
therefore it is important to delete old messages as
soon as possible

Sending SMS Messages

Text Messages
Your phone can send and receive short text messages
provided that your network operator supports the
service (you may have to pay a subscription). There
are two types of messages, SMS and Cell Broadcasts.
SMS Messages
(refer to page 5.2)
Messages of up to 160 characters can be sent
specifically to your phone via a Service Centre. If the
message contains a reply number, you can dial it direct
by placing the cursor under the number then press
,
.
The phone also gives you the facility to send a reply
message or send new messages (via a Service Centre)
to other digital GSM phones operating on a suitable
network. If the SMS service is supported by your
network operator, you should be able to receive and
send messages in your home country and from abroad.
Cell Broadcast
(refer to page 5.6)
These are general information messages sent out by
the network operator or an approved information
supplier. Cell broadcast messages are typically local
weather and travel/traffic reports, stock market prices,
sports results or maybe specialist network services.
To enable you to view the information you must enter
the channel number or code supplied for each service
and a language then switch the feature ON. The
number of channel locations on the SIM is limited to its
memory capacity, so you may have to overwrite old
channel numbers to enter new ones.
