When the pager is in Off mode, messages are retained by the paging service until you change modes (Send/Receive or Receive Only).
TIP Off mode does not turn off your pager. It turns off the radio frequency (RF) transmission. You can still use the applications on your pager to update your Address Book, schedule reminders to yourself, or compose messages to be sent at a later time.
TIP When moving to another zone, reset your pager back to Full Service Send/Receive mode until you receive your first page, then you can put the pager back into Receive Only mode. This allows you to tell the service provider where to find your pager. Zones are defined by the paging service provider, but in general, a major metropolitan area counts as a zone (e.g., the greater Chicago area
is one zone).
