Important: Some carriers do not support network time in all locations. If you’re
traveling, iPhone may not display events or sound alerts at the correct local time. To
manually set the correct time, see “Date and Time” on page 110 .
Phone
Use Phone settings to forward incoming calls, turn call waiting on or o, change your
password, and other things.
Calling From Abroad
Set iPhone to add the correct prex when dialing from another country: In Settings,
tap Phone, then turn International Assist on. This lets you make calls to your home
country using the numbers in your contacts and favorites, without having to add a
prex or your country code (not available in all areas).
For more information, see “Using iPhone Abroad” on page 45.
Call Forwarding
You can set iPhone to forward incoming calls to another number. For example, you
may be on vacation and want all calls to go somewhere else. If you’re going to an area
with no cellular coverage, you may want to forward calls to a place where you can be
reached.
Set iPhone to forward your calls:
1 Choose Phone > Call Forwarding and turn Call Forwarding on.
2 Tap Forwarding To and enter the phone number you want calls forwarded to.
You must be in range of the cellular network when you set iPhone to forward calls, or
calls won’t be forwarded.
