SMS (text messages)
You can send and receive SMS text messages (Short Message Service) with your hand-
set. You can send a text message to any fixed network or mobile phone network 
number. Your text message can be received as a text message by any device with SMS 
functionality (mobile phone, PC, another telephone). If the recipient of your text mes-
sage does not have a phone with SMS functionality, then the message is played back. 
You can write, edit, read, delete or forward SMS text messages from any registered 
handset that has SMS functionality and to which the same receive MSN has been 
assigned. When several handsets with the same receive MSN are in use at any one time, 
only one handset can access the SMS functions.
Text messages are exchanged between SMS centres that are operated by service provid-
ers. The telephone number of the SMS centres through which you wish to send and 
receive text messages must be entered in your phone (page 35). Up to ten SMS centres 
can be entered. You can change the phone numbers of the SMS centres.
You can receive text messages via any of the SMS centres whose number you have 
entered. Of course you must be registered to receive text messages with those SMS cen-
tres (page 36). 
Your text message is sent through the SMS centre that is entered as the active send 
service centre. 
Requirements for sending and receiving text messages
◆ Your network provider supports SMS in the fixed network. Contact your network pro-
vider for further information.
◆ Calling Line Identification may not be permanently deactivated for the MSN used 
◆ To receive text messages you must be registered with your service provider 
◆ The handset must have Unrestricted authorisation to send a text message. 
To receive a text message, Incoming only authorisation is adequate.
◆ You must not allow the network provider to block the phone numbers you have 
entered for SMS centres.
If a recipient's telephone cannot receive an SMS in the fixed network, the SMS is auto-
matically read as a voice message. Between 07.00 and 22.00, these text messages are 
delivered immediately in the form of a telephone call. Text messages sent after 22.00 
are stored and delivered the following day.
