Phone setup (Menu 3)

Enter the setup menu by pressing »MENU«
Select »Phone setup»

The Phone setup menu offers you the
possibility of setting some of the telephone's
functions according to your own personal
wishes:

»Language«
»Auto redial«
»Network selection«
»Power saving«
»Car kit«
»Greeting«
»Speed dialling«
»Any key answer«
»Factory settings«

Language

The display language of your phone is normal-
ly the national language of the country in
which you purchased your SIM card. If this is
not the case the display language will be En-
glish. You do, however, have the option of
choosing between different languages using this
menu.

If, by mistake, you select a language which

you do not understand you can always return
to the original language by pressing the
following keys:

0000

.

Auto redial

If the phone number you are calling is busy,
you can let your phone make up to 10
automatic redial attempts. A redialling success
tone sounds when the attempt is successful.
When you call a number that is busy do not
press »EXIT« unless you want to cancel the
auto redialling attempts.

Network selection

Phoning abroad demands the use of a foreign
network. You can select one manually or let
your telephone do it for you automatically. To
make the choice you must enter this network
selection sub menu which gives you three
options:

»Automatic selection«
»Manual selection«
»Set preferred list«

Automatic selection
Your phone will automatically try to reach your
home network first, then, alternatively to find
another available network. You have the
possibility of establishing a preferred list of
networks (see below).

Manual selection
Your phone will always start searching for the
network with which it was in contact when it
was switched off. If the phone cannot locate
this network, it will present some alternative
networks on the display, and you can then
select one manually. You can select any net-
work from the list, but your phone can get in
contact only with co-operating networks
(Roaming) – except for emergency calls.

Set preferred list
The list of networks on your SIM card defines
the order of preference in which your phone
will select a network in automatic mode. Net-
work operators offer different services and call
charges; therefore it may be advantageous to
make your own preferred list. Enter the
individual networks in your own order of
preference and store them on your SIM card.

To do this, select the empty location in which

you want to store the new network. Pressing
»EDIT« will give you a list of available net-
works. Find a network you wish to store in
your preferred list, and press »OK«. If you
select a currently used location and press
»EDIT«, the former occupant can be deleted
when you enter the new one. Just press »EXIT«
to leave the list as it was.

Once a network is stored in the preferred list,

you can always see the country and network
code of the actual network by pressing »EDIT«
in the Set preferred list option.

Power saving

To save your battery and thus increase both
conversation and standby times you can choose
whether you want the display contents to be
visible or not in standby mode. Select »Display«
and then »Remains on« if you want it to be
visible, and »Switches off« if you want it not to
be visible. The display will then switch off after
3 minutes in standby mode.

The backlight will always switch off after 10

seconds if »Backlight« is set to »Switches off«
(except when connected to a handsfree car kit).
However, you have the option of having the
backlight switched off permanently by selecting
»Always off«.

Car kit

This feature is only effective if the phone is
connected to a handsfree car kit. See page 37
for more information.

Greeting

You can change the welcome greeting of your
phone according to your own wishes. Delete
the old greeting by holding »CLEAR«, enter
the new greeting via the keypad and confirm
by pressing »OK«.
