Nextel Worldwide® Services 76 Placing Worldwide Calls Placing international calls has never been easier. The phone and Nextel Worldwide Service include access to multiple networks so you can get connected and stay connected. Use "+ Dialing" when making calls from one country to another, or within a foreign country. To place an international call using the "+ Dialing" feature, see "+ Dialing" on page 76. + Dialing + Dialing lets you quickly place an international call without entering the local international access code. + Dialing can be used for country-to-country calls as well as local or long distance calls in a foreign country. 1 Press and hold 0 for two seconds. A "0" appears, then changes to a "+." Note: The network translates the "+" into the appropriate international access code needed to place the call. 2 Enter the country code, city code or area code, and phone number. 3 Press s. Direct Dial 1 Manually enter the international access code (varies per country) plus the country code, city or area code, and phone number. 2 Press s. Note: If an international call cannot be completed using + Dialing, use Direct Dial. Please be aware that many in-country phone numbers will require a "0" before the local number. Setting the Way Your Phone Searches for Networks When you are traveling internationally, you may want to configure the phone to search for a specific network or enable it to select the best network. You do this using the iDEN/ GSM Selection setting. There are six options available: Note: Your phone comes programmed with Last active as the default setting. This is the recommended setting, which reduces network registration time. • Last active - This option enables the phone to switch between iDEN and GSM systems that do not overlap. For example, you send or receive calls on an iDEN network while in New York. Then you travel to Paris. Your phone will first search for an iDEN network. If it cannot locate one, it will automatically search for a GSM network. Your Smartphone will always register on the last active mode. • iDEN preferred - This option is useful if your home system is iDEN and you travel to a country or region where GSM coverage is also available. Your Smartphone always searches first for iDEN networks. If an iDEN network is not found, your phone will then search for a GSM network.
