Sending a Test Page to Yourself
It’s a good idea to test your pager and service by sending a page to yourself. Start by using the phone number, web site, or email address (and a PIN, if required) your service provider gave you, then enter a short message. If you are sending a word message from a phone, an operator will assist you; otherwise, press the phone buttons to enter a numeric message or type a message and send it. While you are waiting for the message to reach your pager, refer to page 16 for information about how to read a message. If your pager does not receive the message within a few minutes, contact your service provider. After you’ve tested the pager, read the rest of this guide to learn about the many useful features of your new pager.
