Commonly Asked Questions 83
Why are messages disappearing from my inboxes?
Messages are removed from inboxes under two conditions:
• If you do not set a cleanup schedule for your inboxes, the auto-
cleanup feature uses a default time frame of 5 days. Cleanup
rules can be set for inboxes through the Read application. For
more information, see “To assign a cleanup schedule to an
inbox:” on page 42.
• When your pager has reached Low Memory status, the oldest
read messages are deleted to free available memory for incom-
ing messages. The order in which messages are deleted is dis-
cussed in “Memory Management System” on page 74.
Battery and Charger
The charger’s LED doesn’t light. What should I
do?
Use the following procedure to find the cause:
1. Check that your pager, or the battery alone, is inserted into the
charger correctly. See “The Battery and Charger” on page 12 for
instructions.
2. Unplug the transformer from the AC power supply.
3. Remove the pager (or battery) from the charger, then use an
ordinary pencil eraser to clean the six metal contacts on the
charger and the pager (or battery).
4. Plug the transformer back into the AC power supply to restore
the power.
5. Re-insert the pager or battery into the charger. If the charger’s
LED still does not light, have the charger checked by an autho-
rized service technician.
What does a flashing red indicator light on the
charger mean?
The red flashing indicator light can mean one of four situations:
• The battery or pager may be seated improperly in the charger.
Ensure the battery or pager is properly inserted.
• The battery voltage has remained low for too long a period of
time and the battery cannot be recharged. Dispose of the bat-
tery properly and purchase a new battery.
• The battery temperature is outside the normal charging
range. Remove the battery and re-insert. If flashing continues,
remove the battery, wait one hour, and re-insert. If flashing
continues replace battery or have the charger checked by an
authorized service technician.
• Insufficient power is being delivered by the transformer. Plug
the transformer into another power source.
