TRAVELING BETWEEN SYSTEMS

When you travel, you may have to change the phone system setting. You can choose from six phone system settings:

¥Last activeÑuseful when you move between iDEN and GSM systems that do not overlap, for example, traveling between New York and Paris. If your i2000 phone cannot locate the last system, for example, iDEN, it attempts to locate the other system, GSM.

¥RoamÑuseful when you are in an overlapping system-coverage area and have no preference for either system. This selection causes your i2000 phone to switch between iDEN and GSM until it Þnds an acceptable network.

¥iDEN preferredÑuseful if your home system is iDEN and you are in a country or region where GSM coverage is also available. Your i2000 phone always searches Þrst for iDEN networks.

¥iDEN onlyÑuseful when you are in an area that is covered by iDEN and GSM, but you want to use iDEN. Your i2000 phone attempts to register only on iDEN networks.

¥GSM preferredÑuseful if your home system is GSM and you are in a country or region where iDEN coverage is also available. Your i2000 phone always searches Þrst for GSM networks.

¥GSM onlyÑuseful when you are in an area that is covered by iDEN and GSM, but you want to use GSM. Your i2000 phone attempts to register only on GSM networks.
