• SELECT A PHONE NUMBER

When you first activate your phone, your service provider programs the phone number and system information into your phone’s memory. The number assigned to your phone provides service for only one service area.

Your phone can be activated in up to three different service areas, however. For example, your phone could be activated in Dallas, Toronto, and New York. Each service area would assign a different phone number or account to your phone.

You must select a phone number for your home system, and if you travel outside your home system, you can choose another number. Only one phone number can be active at a time.

Note: It might not be necessary to have up to three numbers for your phone if your service provider has service or roaming agreements for each area in which you wish to use your phone. Contact your service provider for details.
