Notes about picture messages

This function can be used only if it is supported by your network
operator or service provider. Only phones that offer picture message
features can receive and display a picture message.

Each picture message is made up of several text messages. Therefore,
sending one picture message may cost more than sending one text
message. Contact your service provider for pricing information.

Since pictures are saved in the phone’s memory, you cannot view
them if you use your SIM card with another phone.

Tip: Before sending a picture message, be sure to set the message
mode to Text. See “Set the message mode” on page 95 for
instructions.

• RECEIVE MULTIMEDIA MESSAGES (MMS)

A multimedia message (MMS) can contain text, images, and sounds.

Your phone has a multimedia message viewer for playing messages and a
multimedia inbox for storing saved messages.

Once you save the multimedia message, you can use the image as a screen
saver or the sound as a ringing tone.

Note: MMS is a network service. Contact your service provider for
availability and subscription information.
