erence in which your phone should

Manual Your phone will always
start searching for the network
with which it was in contact when
it was last switched off. If the
phone cannot locate this network,
it will present some alternative net-
works in the display, and you must
then select one manually.

order of preference and store them
on your SIM card.

and press »EDIT«, the former occu-
pant will be deleted if you enter a
new one.
Country selection
If you choose automatic network
selection, you can restrict your

allow. You can delete countries
from the list by pressing »EDIT«,
followed by »DELETE«.

start searching for a GSM 900,
GSM 1800 or GSM 1900 network.

start searching for the network that
