Activating Your Phone
䢇If you purchased your phone at a Nextel Store, it is
probably activated and ready to use.
䢇If your phone is not activated, please call Nextel
Customer Service at 1-800-639-6111 from any other
phone.
䢇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.
Setting Up Voicemail
All unanswered calls to your phone are automatically
transferred to your voicemail, even if your phone is in
use or turned off. Therefore, it is recommended that you
set up your voicemail and personal greeting as soon
as your phone is activated.
1. Using your MOTOROLA BRUTE, call your wireless
phone number.
2. Follow the system prompts to:
䡲Create your passcode.
䡲Record your name announcement.
䡲Record your greeting.
Note: Your phone’s battery should have enough charge for
your phone to turn on and find a signal, set up your
voicemail, and make a call. You should fully charge
your battery as soon as possible. See “Charging the
Battery” on page 11 for details.
Tip: You must be in an area covered by the Nextel National
Network when you first power up your phone.
Note: Voicemail Passcode: It is strongly recommended that
you create a passcode when setting up your voicemail
to protect against unauthorized access. Without a
passcode, anyone who has access to your phone is
able to access your voicemail messages.
