Using Short Messaging

Short Message Service (SMS) is an optional service that may be available from your Service Provider. Contact your Service Provider to subscribe to this service.

If your Service Provider offers Short Messaging Services (SMS), you can receive alphanumeric messages on your Digital StarTAC Cellular Telephone phone, just like a pager. The Digital StarTAC Cellular Telephone saves up to 30 short messages (each 80 characters in length, or 10 full length messages of 240 characters, or 2400 total characters) and automatically replaces the oldest messages with the newest as they are received. You can store Call Back messages and numbers for later review. The one-touch Message Button makes viewing your messages easy.

In this chapter you will learn how to:

•use the message key to access your messages

•initiate a Call Back with the press of a button

•lock and unlock speciﬁc messages

•clear one or more messages

Follow these symbols as a guide for using the keys on the side of your phone:

Press	to scroll up.
Press	to select.
Press	to scroll down.
Press	on the keypad to retrieve messages.
