Creating and sending a text message
Each text message can hold up to 160

several messages. (If you send a text
message to an email address, the email
address is deducted from the
160-character count.)

3 Select the To field to address the
message:
•
Press Center If the recipient’s
name appears in the list of recent

• If the recipient is in your Contacts list,
enter the first initial and last name (no
spaces), and then select the
recipient’s phone number or email
address, depending on where you
