56 Setting Network Preferences
Forbidden Networks
The names of the forbidden networks are stored on your SIM card. If
such a forbidden network is within range, it is left out when the phone
searches for a network (automatic search mode).
If your home network and a forbidden network come to an agreement
that allows you to use the forbidden network, you can select this net-
work even though the message
Forbidden is displayed.
You can create a list that defines in which order your phone will
select a network during automatic network selection, when your
home network is not within range.
The number of networks that can be stored in the list depends on your
SIM card.
The Edit list function lets you review the networks in the list. Apart
from rearranging the order of the networks, you can add new net-
works to the list and delete networks from it.

1. Scroll to Networks , Y E S , Edit list , Y E S .
2. The name of the first network is displayed. If a network is within
