Cellular System Information

Cellular System Overview

There are generally two types of cellular systems serving any metropolitan area. One of these will most likely be operated by the telephone company that provides telephone service to your community, generally referred to as a wireline carrier. The other cellular service provider is a radio common carrier, referred to as a non-wireline carrier.

Your Cellular Service Operator will provide information concerning specific features, procedures, and coverage in your particular area.

Service Area

The area within which the phone operates is defined by your cellular service provider. Since this is a radio system, no exact boundaries (as on a map) can be drawn. The red NS (No Service) flashes if you are beyond range of a service area. There may be locations within your area, such as tunnels and underground parking facilities, where the unit may act as if it were beyond range.

Weak Signal Alert

If you are called in a location the system determines is inadequate for high quality service, you may hear series of beeps to inform you of the call attempt. The caller will receive the recorded “Not In Service” message. CALL will appear in the display, and the green on indicator will flash quickly. If this occurs, you must press CLR before the phone will operate. Most systems do not impose air-time charges for such call attempts.

NOTE This indicator is controlled through the initial programming of your phone. Refer to the Programming Guide for more details.
