Activating Your Phone

If you purchased your phone at a Nextel Store, it is probably activated and ready to use.

If your phone is not activated, please call Nextel Customer Service at 1-800-639-6111 from any other phone.

Tip	You must be in an area covered by the Nextel
	National Network when you first power up your
	phone.

When you power up your phone the first time, it performs a series of security checks. For example, it verifies the phone is Nextel-approved and the correct SIM card is installed. If you don’t pass the security checks, your phone displays messages and screen prompts showing what to do next. If you still

encounter security messages, call Nextel Customer Service at 1-800-639-6111 from any other phone.
