Reading Text Messages

Some Service Providers let you subscribe to a Short

Message Service (SMS), which allows you to

receive alphanumeric messages on your digital

phone, just like a pager. Contact your Service

Provider for information about the availability of

messaging in your area.

SMS enables your phone to save up to 15 short

messages, each up to 80 characters in length, or

ﬁve full-length 239-character messages.

When received, the newest messages replace the

oldest. You can store Call Back messages and

numbers for later review. The one-touch Message

Button makes viewing your messages easy.
