About network services
If you are subscribed to the network services,
you can operate the Voice mail service, Call
forwarding service, and Caller ID display request
service overseas. However, some network
services are unavailable.
To use network services overseas, you must
set "Remote access" to start. You can also set
"Remote access" once reaching your
destination. For more information, see
"Mobile Phone User's Guide [International
Services]".
The network services, even if they can be set
on/off, may not be available depending on the
overseas operator you connect.
Checks to do in the country you
stay
When you arrive overseas, the FOMA
terminal automatically connects to an
available network operator when it is
powered on.
■
About connections
The FOMA terminal automatically searches for
and then connects to the network of another
available operator when you enable "Select
automatically" for "Network operators" in the
"Mobile networks" setting.
