About Area
Information
While the SMS function is a personal service
with messages directed to you, the Area Infor-
mation is a broadcast type message that is sent
to all subscribers in a certain cell, for example a
section of a city, at the same time. You can set
your phone to receive only those types of mes-
sages you want to listen to, e.g.: the local
weather forecast or the local traffic report. Each
message is identified by a 3-digit code. Check
with your service provider for which message
types are available in your network.
When you receive an AI the display looks like
this:
The default setting for the phone is that the AI
service is turned off.
