Receiving Area Information

This chapter describes how you can make your phone available for Area Information (AI).This
service is network dependent.
Area Information
While the SMS function is a personal service with
messages directed to you, the Area Information 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 messages 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 AI (Area Information) the display
looks like this:
The default setting for the phone is that the AI service
is turned off.
