Area information

Area information messages are text messages that are sent to all subscribers in a certain network area, for example, a local traffic report. When you receive an area information message, the message automatically appears on the screen. When you dismiss the information, it will be stored in the Area info Inbox until it is replaced by a new message received on the same channel. Please consult your service provider for more information about the availability of area information services and area information channel numbering. See ‘‘Area tab’ on page 164 for more information.
