Message memory space
Storage space for messages is limited (determined by
your smart (SIM) card), therefore you are advised to
delete as many messages as possible. The receipt of new
messages may be affected if the storage becomes full,
however, your phone will provide a warning.
If the message capacity becomes full when a new
message is received and you do not acknowledge and
delete the message, then the display will change to show
SMS full
and the icon on the top row.
To check available space:
1 From standby,
c to enter the menu,
2
e to select Messages, then choose Capacity.
• If the Used figure is nearing the Capacity setting then
view the messages as discussed earlier and delete
any that are no longer required.

A selection of general settings are associated with text
messaging, the most important of which is the messaging
service centre number for your network. Generally this
number is pre-installed on your smart (SIM) card.

messages are sent for transmission,

*• Message type – converts and sends messages as
email, fax, etc. subject to network support,

Cell broadcast
Your network may provide cell broadcast features where
news, travel information and special offers in your current
vicinity are sent to your phone using text messages. If you
subscribe to such a service, your network informs you of
the available channels, of which you can choose any five.
