Cell Broadcast Messages

These are general messages that your
service provider broadcasts to all phones in
a geographic area. Your phone can only
receive a cell broadcast message when it is
in idle mode.

Messages are broadcast in numbered
'channels'. For example, channel 050
might be for local weather, traffic reports
or stock market prices. Please contact your
service provider for a list of available
channels and the information they
provide.

While a broadcast message is scrolling
across the display, you can stop and start it
by pressing

<. Press > to restart the

message from the beginning. If you want
to remove the message from the display,
press

C.

ATo use the < and > keys for

their normal functions while you are
receiving a cell broadcast message,
you must first remove the message.

When the message has scrolled across the
display, the beginning of the message
remains until you remove it, a new
message arrives, or you leave the
geographic area. For set up details, see
Cell Broadcast.
