Searching for Networks
When you turn on the phone, it searches for the last accessed network. If this
is not within range, you may use another network, provided your home net-
work has an agreement that allows you to do so. This is called roaming.
The order of preference in which the phone selects a network is determined by
a list of preferred networks on your SIM card.
The Networks menu includes a number of functions that let you determine
how the phone searches for a network. You may also select a network yourself
from those within range.
