OTHER FEATURES
USING THE MESSAGING FUNCTIONS
Some cellular systems provide services that can send up to
three different types of messages to your phone, including
calling line ID, voice mail notification, and short (alphanumer-
ic) messages. Your phone is preprogrammed to work with
these services.
Note: In order to use these functions on your phone, your
cellular carrier must provide, and you must subscribe to,
these services. Otherwise, selecting or setting them will have
no effect. For more information about these services, call
your cellular carrier.
Overview/Receiving Messages
When your phone is turned on and receives calling line ID,
voice mail notification, or short message data from your cellu-
lar carrier, it alternately displays:
Your phone stores each message in a special memory area
called the “message stack.” The message stack can hold up
to 20 messages at once, with messages stored in order from
newest (memory position 1) to oldest (memory position 20).
