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 12 for details.

 

 

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.
