INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of a Motorola
Express Xtra™ or Express Xtra FLX™ pager. Your
new pager allows you to receive numeric messages
instantly and affordably. The Express Xtra or
Express Xtra FLX pager provides many enhanced
features and can be a vital part of your personal and
business life management. The compact pager in­corporates the most advanced electronic, micromin­iaturization and wireless technologies.

EXCITING FLEX TECHNOLOGY

If your pager incorporates the latest in paging tech­nology - FLEX TECHNOLOGY - you can enjoy many
benefits. FLEX technology extends battery life up to
four times longer than ordinary pagers, saving you
time and money. As a Motorola FLEX pager user,
you can feel more confident in receiving your pages
because FLEX technology improves the ability to re­ceive pages. FLEX technology has been developed
by Motorola, the leader in paging innovation and
quality.

EFFECTIVE USE OF YOUR PAGER

Your pager can help you keep in contact with every­one important to you . . . your children, child care pro­viders, business office, family, and friends. Be sure
your children’s school, physician, family, and friends
have your pager number so you can be contacted
when necessary.

If you have a cellular phone, give your pager number
instead of your cellular number. Then you can decide
who to call back on your cellular phone without pay­ing for incoming cellular calls.
