Setting Up Your Voice Mail Box

You must set up your Voice Mail box before you can retrieve messages. The following steps will tell you how to set up your mailbox. However, before proceeding you may want to read “Recording Your Active Greeting” on page 42, which provides information you may want to include in your greeting:

1Using your Nextel phone, dial your 10-digit Nextel Personal Telephone Number (PTN).

If you are calling from a phone other than your Nextel i 700plus phone, dial your 10-digit Nextel Personal Telephone Number (PTN). When you hear the greeting, press * to access your Voice Mail account.

2When prompted, enter your password. (New users should enter the last seven digits of your phone number. This is your tempo- rary password).
