The message services can only be used if they are supported by 
your network or your service provider. 
Note: When sending messages, your phone may display the words 
Message sent. This is an indication that the message has been sent by 
your device to the message center number programmed into your device. 
This is not an indication that the message has been received at the 
intended destination. For more details about messaging services, check 
with your service provider.
Important: Exercise caution opening messages. Messages may contain 
malicious software or otherwise be harmful to your device or PC. 
Only devices that have compatible features can receive and display 
messages. The appearance of a message may vary depending on the 
receiving device.
■ Text messages (SMS)
You can use the short message service (SMS) to send and receive multipart 
messages made of several ordinary text messages (network service) that can 
contain pictures.
Before you can send any text, picture, or message, you must save your message 
center number. See "Message settings," p. 28.
To check SMS e-mail service availability and to subscribe to the service, contact 
your service provider.
Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for a 
single message. Longer messages will be sent as a series of two or more messages. 
Your service provider may charge accordingly. Characters that use accents or other 
marks, and characters from some language options like Chinese, take up more 
space limiting the number of characters that can be sent in a single message.
At the top of the display, you can see the message length indicator that tracks the 
number of characters available. For example, 10/2 means that you can still add 
10 characters for the text to be sent as two messages.
