Receiving/Reading a Personal Message
A flashing
H
in the upper-left corner indicates at least one unread message in
your pager. If programmed with reminder alerts, your pager alerts periodically
to remind you there are unread messages. Each flashing personal message
indicator (
D
) on the Status screen represents an unread message. A non-
flashing
D
represents a previously read message. If your pager has not received
any messages, there are no personal message indicators displayed on the
Status screen.
When your pager has received a message and an alert is being emitted use the
following steps to read the message.
Press any button to stop the alert. The new message is automatically stored,
along with the time and date it was received. The Status screen displays the
number of the message (03: in this example because it is in the third
message slot) and the first line of the message.
