battery.  
• Turn off the pager when you are not using it. See

PAGER IDEAS  
Include your pager number in your answering machine  
or voice mail messages. This way, you can receive im-  
portant messages immediately.  
Give your pager number to friends, family members,  
and business associates. When they page you, they  
can use their telephone’s keypad to enter a number  
where you can reach them. Your pager displays this  
number when you receive the page.  
Leave your pager number at your children’s school  
and with the babysitter so you can always be reached  
in an emergency.  
22  
 
17-8022.fm Page 23 Thursday, July 22, 1999 9:59 AM  
Establish code messages with your family or friends.  
For example, your children can include the code 3333  
to tell you they are home from school. Your spouse can  
send 07734 to say hello! (Read it upside-down.)  
If you have a cellular phone, give your pager number  
instead of your cellular number. You can decide who to  
call back on your cellular phone, without paying for in-  
coming cellular calls. This can drastically reduce your  
monthly cellular bill!
