paying for incoming calls.

    1/01 Sending a Test Page to Yourself It’s a good idea to test your pager and service by sending a page to yourself. Start by using the phone number, web site or email address (and PIN, if required) your service provider gave you, then enter a short message.
  • Page 3: Information Services

    Note: There are four scroll speeds: LINE-BY- LINE, SLOW, MEDIUM and FAST. Receiving/Reading Messages When a message is received, the pager either alerts audibly (AUDIBLE, CHIRP, ESCALERT and all PLEASING modes except NO ALERT) or vibrates (VIBRATE mode). If the NO ALERT mode is selected, no alert occurs for normal messages. The unread message indicator §...
  • Page 4 There are three types of alarms: REMINDER, GENERAL and EVENT. If the pager is in OFF mode when an alarm expires, it turns on, alerts according to the alert mode, and remains on. If the pager is in NO ALERT mode, an alarm causes an audible alert.
  • Page 5: Message

    You can set up to three EVENT alarms. Each EVENT alarm allows you to keep a special reminder message that displays when the alarm is activated and the pager alerts. These can be set to alert either on a daily basis or one-time only.
  • Page 6 Month to --/--. • The Standby screen displays with J (the enable alert icon). • When an EVENT alarm expires, the message displays and the pager alerts. Press any button once to stop the alarm, and again to clear the message.
  • Page 7 Storing Messages Your pager can store up to 16 personal messages. Each stored message is assigned a number that displays when the message is stored. The first message received is 1, the second is 2, and so on. Deleting Messages Deleting Messages One-at-a-Time •...
  • Page 8: Phone Directory

    Information service messages are usually sent by information service providers. Information service messages are typically news or financial reports which provide information that is important for a short time (a few hours). This pager can store up to five information service messages.
  • Page 9: Adding A Received Message

    Optional Features The Travel Clock, Travel Alarm and QuickNotes are optional features that may be available on your pager. If these features are not currently available and you would like to take advantage of them, contact your paging service provider.
  • Page 10 QuickNotes QuickNotes are short messages that can be displayed when you are paged. There are 10 QuickNotes permanently stored in the memory of the pager. The person paging you activates these messages by entering a code number instead of their phone number.
  • Page 11: Special Pager Displays

    Water and moisture, excessive heat, and extreme shock may damage the pager. Do not expose your pager to these conditions. If repair is required, the Motorola Service Organization, staffed with specially trained technicians, offers repair and maintenance facilities throughout the world.
