Network Selection
You can choose which method your phone uses to
connect you to a foreign GSM network when operating
outside your home country (roaming). Normally you
would select Automatic mode (see below) but you can
choose Manual or Periodic and force a search for
available networks or request network reselection. If
you attempt to select a network with which your home
network does not have a roaming agreement
‘NETWORK NOT ALLOWED’ will appear on display.
Operating Modes
■
there is a choice of three operating modes
AUTOMATIC - your phone will search for the home
network first then a network from the preferred list
stored on the SIM, in list order (refer to page 5.12 to
edit the list) and if both these fail, any network which
has a roaming agreement with your home network
MANUAL - if the search for your selected network
fails, the phone will display a list of available networks
for you to choose from
PERIODIC - this is similar to AUTOMATIC mode but
is particularly useful if you are in an area of the home
country where there is more than one network
present e.g. near a border. When the home network
is unavailable the phone will select a foreign network
but will continue to periodically search for the home
network. This ensures that you will be automatically
connected to the home network as soon as possible
or to a network with a higher priority
