Your Nokia 1100 phone lets you send text messages beyond the
normal 160-character limit (check with your service provider to make sure their system can
handle long messages). If your message exceeds 160 characters, it will be sent as a series of
two to four messages. As you write the message, look in the upper right part of the screen. You
can see the message length indicator counting backwards from 459. For example, 420/1means
that you have used 39 characters and the message will be sent in one part. But 298/2 means
that you have used 161 characters, so the message will be divided and sent in two parts.
Using special (Unicode) characters, such as ë, â, á, ì,
characters in your message, the indicator may not show the message length correctly.
Before the message is sent, the Nokia 1100 phone tells you if the message exceeds the
