ROAMING

Using the phone in a city where you do not sub-
scribe to a cellular service is referred to as

roam-

ing

. When you roam,

turns on steadily if the

phone is using its home type system, and flashes
when it is using a cellular system that is different
from your home type system (non-home type sys-
tem).

In some areas, the cellular system’s computer au-
tomatically recognizes roaming telephones. In oth-
er areas, you must contact the service provider
before it can recognize your phone. The operator
needs to know your telephone number, your
phone’s ESN (Electronic Serial Number), and how
you plan to pay for your calls. There is normally an
additional charge for roaming calls.

Note: Your phone’s ESN is under the phone’s bat-
tery. (However, the roaming cellular service provid-
ers can usually automatically determine your
phone’s ESN when you call.)
