Getting Started
Hi, I’m QuickStart and I’m going to help you get started.
The Motorola
®
TalkAbout
ä
T350 Word Message Pager has
lots of cool features -- advanced messaging, time-keeping,
news updates,alarms and much more.It’s compact and easy to
carry.
It can save you money,too. If you have a
cellphone, give out your pager number
instead of yourphone number. That way,
you can decide which calls to take and notpay for
unwelcome phone calls.
Learning to use the pager is easy, if you read
this user’s guide.
A detachable Quick Reference Card is on the
back cover.
The TalkAbout T350 is a great pager. I oughta know
... some of my best friends are pagers!

Sending a Test Page to Yourself
It’s a good idea to testyour pager and service by sending a
page to yourself.
Start by using the phone number, web site or email address
(and a PIN, if required) your service provider gave you, then enter a short
message.
If you are sending a word message from a phone, an operator will assist
you; otherwise, press the phone buttons to enter a numeric message or
type a message and send it.
While you are waiting for the message to reach your pager, refer to
page 20 for more information about how to read a message. If your pager
does not receive the message within a few minutes, contact your service
provider.
After you receive the test page, you don’t have to call
yourself back -- unless you really wantto.
