Menu 7, System Search
Your phone works in Public Systems (such as your Home
System), and in Private Systems (if supported by the net-
work). With Menu 7, you choose how the phone selects a
network to use. The default is
Automatic
, which means
the phone automatically searches for networks available to
you and chooses the appropriate one. Every time you
switch on the phone, it resets this to
Automatic
.
(Note that it chooses which Public system to use based on
the choice you make in Menu 6 1, Public Systems).
If you choose
Manual
, the phone searches for networks,
then begins displaying them. The phone displays
AVAIL-
ABLE:
or
NOT AVAIL:
for the systems it finds. (You
cannot use
NOT AVAIL:
systems.) Use the
W key to
scroll through the choices, and press
(OK)
when you see
the one you want.
If you choose
New Search
, the phone begins a new
search for new Private and Residential systems. When it
finds the best new system, it displays it. You can then
Select
it, or start another search by pressing
Next
.
To switch from private to public
If you are in a private system and want access to a public
system, press and hold left
ñ
(Menu)
, when you are
not in a call. You can then search through and select avail-
able public systems. The phone uses the public system
you choose for one outgoing call. After that it goes back to
Automatic
system selection.
