Nokia 9500 - Page 49

In the navigation bar, you can see the message length
indicator counting backwards from 160. For example,
10 (2) means that you can still add 10 characters for the
text to be sent as two messages.
Note that using special (Unicode) characters such as ë,
â, á, ì take up more space.
If there are special characters in your message, the
indicator may not show the message length correctly. If
Confirm multipart messages is set to Yes, then
before the message is sent, the device tells you if the
message exceeds the maximum length allowed for one
message. See Text message settings on page 49.
