Receiving an SMS
All received SMS messages are saved in the
incoming list. Linked SMS messages are dis-
played as one message. If this is too long or
is not transferred completely, it is split into
individual messages. Since an SMS remains
in the list even after it has been read, regu-
larly delete SMS messages from the list.
The display tells you if the SMS memory is
full.
