• USE YOUR PHONE WHILE TRAVELING
When your phone is outside its home area, the phone is said to be roaming.
Calls made or received while you are roaming may cost more than calls
made in your home area.
•
When your phone begins roaming, the phone beeps once and may show
the word ROAM on the phone’s screen, depending on how roaming
works with your phone.
•
When your phone is not roaming, it either shows the word HOME or
the name of your service provider.
•
When you’re roaming in some systems outside your home area, the
system in which you’re traveling (the host system) may not recognize
your phone. You may not be able to place a call.
Contact your service provider for more specific information on how roaming
works with your phone and for information about coverage limitations.
