Nextel Worldwide® Services 77 • GSM preferred -This option is useful if your home system is GSM and you travel to a country or region where iDEN is also available. Your phone will always search for GSM networks first. If a GSM network is not found, your phone will then search for an iDEN network. • iDEN only - This option is useful when you are in an area that is covered by iDEN and GSM networks, but you want to use iDEN. Your Smartphone attempts to register only on iDEN networks. This is the optimal setting you should set your Smartphone to when in a Nextel iDEN service region. • GSM only - This option is useful when you are in an area that is covered by iDEN and GSM, but you want to use GSM. Your Smartphone attempts to register only on GSM networks. This is the optimal setting you should set your Smartphone to when in a region with only GSM carriers. • Roam - This option is useful when you are in an overlapping system-coverage area and have no preference for either the iDEN or the GSM network. Your Smartphone will switch between iDEN and GSM until it finds an acceptable network.

Searching for a Network While you are on a GSM network, you can perform an automatic or manual search for available networks. A manual search allows you to view the available networks and make a selection rather than use the network automatically selected by the Nextel Worldwide Service. Note: Your phone will automatically attempt to register with networks that have agreements with Nextel. By manually selecting a network, you may choose a network that does not have an agreement with Nextel or does not offer optimal coverage in that area.
