108 GSM MENU: MESSAGES
Broadcasts
Cell broadcasts are general messages, which are
broadcast to all receivers within a particular re-
gion. They may contain advertisements, local
weather reports and information about road traf-
fic, stock exchange and sport results, etc.
Cell Broadcast Service categorizes the type of in-
formation that these messages contain and the lan-
guage in which the message has been compiled.
According to your choice, you are then able to ig-
nore certain message types, e.g. advertising infor-
mation or messages in an unfamiliar language.
Cell Broadcast Service is a network feature. For fur-
ther information, please contact your network op-
erator.

of all broadcast messages, and the presence of the
s symbol shows that there are one or more un-
read messages.
