Cell Broadcast

These are general messages that your service provider broadcasts in numbered

channels in a geographic area. The broadcasts can be news, weather, sports, travel,
and more. Contact your service provider for a list of channels and the information
they provide.

Note: Your Personal Communicator can receive broadcast messages only when it
is in Standby mode.

While a cell broadcast message is scrolling across the screen, you can:

Press

!

to stop and start the message.

Press

ª

to remove the message.

Note: The function of the

!

button changes while you are receiving a cell

broadcast message. You must remove the message before

!

returns to normal.

When the message is complete, the beginning of the message remains displayed
until you remove it, a new message arrives, or you leave the geographic area.

From the Cell Broadcast submenu, select On to receive these messages, or Off to
stop receiving them.

Note: Selecting Off deletes all stored cell broadcast messages.
