ing calls by one key emergency dialing may be possible. Calls to the

SYSTEM SELECT (MENU 5)
Each cellular service area can have two cellular service providers. One
service provider is called the 'non-wireline' or 'A' system and the other
service provider is called the 'wireline' or 'B' system. Your phone is
designed to work with either or both service provider networks.
This system select function allows you to program your phone for optimum
operation when in your home service area or when away from your home area
(such as when roaming). When you buy your phone, you may register (receive
a phone number) with one or two service providers.
In some areas, roaming phones are automatically recognized by the cellular
system's computer. In other areas, you must contact the service provider
before it can recognize your phone. The operator needs to know your tele-
phone 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: The ESN of your phone is located under the battery of the phone.
(However, the ESN of your phone can normally be read over the air
by the roaming cellular service providers when you call them to
register your roaming presence on their cellular network.)

uses its home system when possible and the non-home
type system when service is not available in its home
system.
* When system B NAM is selected.

NAM. The phone will automatically display the selected system type
(A or B) in the upper left corner of the display.
