Usually, it is less expensive to use the same
provider type for cellular service when you are
in your home city and when you roam. To do
this, you need to know whether your cellular
service provider is type A or B in your home
city and in each city where you plan to travel.
It is possible for a cellular service provider to
be (or have agreements with) Provider A in
some cities and Provider B in others.
HOME TYPE (A or B) — Use this setting if you are
roaming and your home city cellular service provid-
er is the same provider type as in the city you have
travelled to (for example, if the company is Provid-
er A in both cities).
NON-HOME TYPE (A or B) — Use this setting if
you are roaming and your home city cellular ser-
vice provider is the opposite provider type from the
city you have travelled to (for example, the compa-
ny is Provider A in your home city and Provider B in
the other city).
HOME AREA — Use this setting if you do not want
to roam (you can only use the phone within the
area covered by your home cellular service provid-
er).
BOTH SYSTEMS — Use this setting if you want
the phone to use
either
Provider A or Provider B.
The phone uses its home type system when possi-
ble and the non-home type system when service is
not available on its home type system.
