Deleting Messages from the Pager (Emptying the Trash)

Deleting messages from your pager is actually a two-procedure process. After you have moved the message(s) to the Trash, you must use the empty trash function (C) to actually remove the message(s) from your pager’s memory. While messages are in the Trash, they can still be moved to other folders. Only when you empty the trash are you actually deleting the messages from your pager.

On the Status screen, press s until g (TRASH) is highlighted.

	Press u. A list of all messages in the Trash is displayed.				FOLDERS
￿Press t. The Trash Function menu is displayed.
￿Press s until EMPTY TRASH (C) is displayed as shown in the example below.
￿Note: C is only displayed when there are messages in the Trash.

Setting Reminder Alarms for Events (the Event List)

Note: You must immediately set the reminder alarm for the event (that is, before the pager returns to the Status screen). Otherwise, the move does not take effect and you must move the message to this folder again.

As soon as you move the message to the Event List, a screen similar to the example below is displayed.

Note: The time and date default to the current time and date.
