Call Settings (Menu 5)
This menu lets you set up calling restrictions and
store calling card information in your phone.
Calling Options (Menu 5 1)
This menu lets you set your phone so that it can
only make the types of calls you specify, or only
in certain types of networks.
Note: When calls are restricted, calls may be possible to
the emergency number programmed into your phone
(e.g., 911 or another official emergency number) including
calls by Emergency 9 Dialing.
Carrier Selection (Menu 5 1 1)
Your phone uses a carrier network (also called a
cellular system) to make and receive calls.
Generally you sign up for service with a particular
carrier (your cellular service provider). This is
called your “Home system” and usually you want
the phone to use it.
But there may be times when you can’t or don’t
use your Home system (for example when you
travel). Then, there’s usually more than one
network your phone can work in. But which one

should it work in? The point of the Carrier Selec-
tion menu is to help your phone make the best
choice for you.
A simple fact to know: All cellular systems are
either type “A” or “B”. So your “Home system” is
either an “A” or “B” system. To find out your
system type, ask your cellular service provider.
You need your security code
to enter this menu. Once you
have entered the menu, you
can choose the option you
want (described below). Press
to move the pointer to the option you want.
Press OK to select it.
Preferred - Your dealer can program a list of
“preferred” networks into your phone. If your
dealer has done this, when you choose Preferred
your phone looks first for your home system, then
a network in the preferred list, then a network of
the same “type” (A or B) as your home system,
then a network of the opposite “type” as your
home system.
If your dealer has not programmed this list into
your phone, use the Preferred option. The phone
will look first for your home system, then a net-
work of the same “type” as your home system.
Non-Preferred - Your phone will choose a
network that is of a different “type” than your
Home system.
Any - The phone first looks for your home
system, then a network of the same “type” as
your home system, then a network of the
opposite “type” as your home system.
Home Only - The phone only looks for service
on the Home system. It won’t choose any other
network, so if you’re out of your Home system,
you won’t have service (NO SERVICE).

Useful Information about Calling Cards
Remember, to use the automated method of
making calling card calls, you must have entered
all the necessary card details and selected the
card (using this menu). If only the details for one
card are entered, there is no need to use the
Select feature. But, if you then add the details of
another card, the second card will automatically
become the card in use. Only one card can be
active at a time.
You may enter a card name for each card, but
this is optional. This name is only used for card
identification on the phone display, and has no
effect on the sending sequence. ‘Card A’ and
‘Card B’ will be replaced by the names you enter.
