■ Messages 
(Menu 1)
You can read, 
compose, send and save text and 
multimedia messages to and from 
compatible devices (network 
services). All messages are organised 
into folders.
Before you can send any text or 
picture, you need to save your 
message centre number, see 
”Message settings” on page 39.
Text messages
Your phone can send and receive 
multi-part messages, which consist 
of several ordinary text messages 
(network service). This may affect 
the invoicing for the message. You 
can check the number of characters 
available and messages to be sent in 
the counter on top of the screen. 
Note that some characters may 
require more space than others, for 
example Chinese characters require 
more space than English letters, and 
the counter may adjust the number 
of maximum number of characters 
available accordingly. For pricing of 
multi-part messages, contact your 
service provider. 
You can also send and receive text 
messages that contain pictures. 
Each picture message is made up of 
several text messages. Therefore, 
sending one picture message may 
cost more than sending one text 
message.
Note: The picture message 
function can be used only if 
it is supported by your 
network operator or service 
provider. Only phones that 
offer picture message 
features can receive and 
display picture messages.
