Cell broadcast messages
To select whether you want the cell broadcast op-
tion to be on or off you must enter the Message
setup menu and select
(see page 34).
These are general messages broadcast to a group
of telephones and are available to network sub-
scribers only. Cell broadcast messages are typi-
cally local weather and traffic reports, stock mar-
ket prices, sports results etc. If you have selected
Roaming, i.e. if you are abroad and connected to
a foreign network (see page 28), you may be able
to receive cell broadcast messages from other net-
works, too.
The messages are transmitted in numbered chan-
nels and in general each channel will contain in-
formation of the same type. Cell broadcast mes-
sages may be sent out in different languages.
Contact your network operator for further details.
