Warning! Do not switch on the phone when wireless phone use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger.

You can use the Messages menu (Menu 1) and Short Message Service (SMS) to read, write, and send text messages to another phone in your

network. You may also be able to use the minibrowser e-mail feature to send text messages to phones in other networks.

Important: When sending SMS messages, your phone may display Message sent (where service is available). This is an indication that the message has been sent by your phone to the SMS network. This is not an indication that the message has been received at the intended destination. For more details about SMS services, check with your service provider.

Note: This function can be used only if it is supported by your network operator or service provider. Only devices that offer compatible e-mail features can receive and display messages. It may require a separate subscription.
