3Select either Text (up to 160 characters) or Numeric page (message consists of phone number only).

Note: The ability to send a numerical page may be dependent on your wireless network. Please contact your service provider for more information on text messaging in your area.

OR

Press Search, highlight the desired number stored in your phone book, then press Select.
