Nokia 2160 manual Menu 7, System Select

Menu 7, System Select

In each cellular service area there are usually two cellular operators operating public systems of type “A” or “B”. One of the public systems (A or B) is your home system (depending on your operator) but your phone can work with both types of systems. With Menu 7, you can select the type of system the phone should use.

If you have registered with several operators, use Menu 8, NAM Select, to select the current home system. The currently-selected NAM determines which system is currently your “home” system.

Both A&B means that when roaming, the phone first tries to use a home-type system (such as “B” if the home system is B). If this is not available, it then tries to use a non-home type system (such as “A” if the home system is B).

Hometype A or Hometype B means the phone tries to use only a home-type system.

Non-Home A or Non-Home B means the phone tries to use only a non-home-type system.

Home Area means the phone cannot roam at all.

Note: To use this option, your home system operator must have a roaming agreement with the host company whose system you try to use. Contact your home system operator for the roaming agreements they have with other operators.

Depending on the selection either the A or B indicator (or both) will appear. Neither indicator appears if Home Area is selected.
