64 Setting Network Preferences
Starting an Automatic Network Search
• Scroll to
Networks , YES, New search , YES.
The phone automatically starts searching for a network according to the
list of preferred networks stored on your SIM card.
The names of the forbidden networks are stored on your SIM card. If such a
forbidden network is within range, it is left out when the phone searches for a
network (automatic search mode).
If your home network and a forbidden network come to an agreement that
allows you to use the forbidden network, you can select this network even
though the message
Forbidden is displayed.
You can create a list that defines in which order your phone will select a net-
work during automatic network selection, when your home network is not
within range.
The number of networks that can be stored in the list depends on your SIM
card.
The
Edit list function lets you review the networks in the list. Apart from
rearranging the order of the networks, you can add new networks to the list
and delete networks from it.
Reviewing the List of Networks
1. Scroll to
Networks , YES, Edit list , YES.
2. The name of the first network is displayed. If a network is within range, it
is marked with *.
3. Scroll through the networks in the list.
Tip! To see a network’s full name, press *.
