USING YOUR

ANSWERING MACHINE

Voice messages are quick and easy to retrieve from your Answering Machine – as easy as “1-2-3.”

Your Answering Machine is a powerful and flexible tool that you can customize to meet your needs. It’s also how callers are able to send you numeric pages, with information such as call-back numbers.

Setting Up Your Answering Machine.

After calling Customer Care to activate your Omnipoint account, one of the first calls you make on your handset should be to set up your personal Answering Machine. (All calls from your handset to your Answering Machine will be charged at Off-Peak rates.) If you haven’t done it yet, here’s how:

>Dial .

>Press to place your call. You’ll be greeted by a friendly set of recorded instructions to help you personalize your Answering Machine. You can change your Answering Machine settings at anytime.

>First, follow the instructions to create a private password to prevent unauthorized access to your messages. Choose a password that’s easy for you to remember. It must have at least four digits and no more than seven digits. (Note: if you forget your password, you’ll have to contact Customer Care and set up your Answering Machine again – and any messages it contains will be erased.)

>After you’ve chosen your password, you’ll be requested to record your name to identify your voice mailbox. Your recorded name will be used as part of a standard greeting.

>If you prefer a personal greeting, follow the instructions to record your personal greeting. Callers will have several ways to reach you, so your greeting should explain their options. Here’s an example:

“Hello, this is (give your name or number). Please leave a message after the tone. Or to page me, press 1 now and enter the call-back number where I can reach you. I’ll return your call as soon as I can. Thank you.”

>When you have finished setting up your Answering Machine,

press to hang up.

Notification That You Have a Message.

After a caller leaves you a voice message, your Answering Machine notifies you by sending a text message to your handset. (For instructions on reading notification messages, see “”Receiving A Message” on p. 20.)

Each notification message sent to you will indicate the number of new voice messages you have received.

While the notification message appears on your handset display, you

can listen to your voice messages immediately by pressing . (This will automatically dial * 1-2-3.)

Listening To Your Messages.

When you reach your Answering Machine, your messages will begin playing automatically.
