Messaging Service Instructions

To begin messaging service, contact your service provider for activation

instructions. The phone number of the messaging service can be found in the

literature provided by the service provider.

Sending a Test Message to Yourself

After you have activated your service, it’s a good idea to test your

communicator (PIC) and service by sending a message to yourself. Start by

using the telephone number, web site, or email address (and a wireless

address) provided by your service provider. Then, enter a short message. If you

are sending a word message from a telephone, an operator will assist you;

otherwise, press the telephone buttons to enter a numeric message or type a

message and send it. While you are waiting for the message to reach your

communicator (PIC), refer to “Reading Messages” on page 28 for information

about how to read a message. If your communicator (PIC) does not receive the

message within a few minutes, contact your service provider. After you have

tested the communicator (PIC), read the rest of this guide to learn about the

many useful features of your new communicator (PIC).
