Setting Up Voicemail

The first thing you’ll want to do after activating your phone is set up your voicemail.

Knowing When You Have Messages

There are several ways your Sprint PCS Phone alerts you of new messages:

▶By displaying a message on the screen.

▶By playing the assigned ringer type.

▶By the LED blinking red.

▶By displaying at the top of your screen for voicemail messages, Sprint PCS Web Messages, or Sprint PCS Web Alerts.

Message Types

There are three types of messaging features available from your Sprint PCS Phone’s menu. You can receive voicemail, Sprint PCS Web Messages (also known as page/text or SMS messages) and

Sprint PCS Web Alerts (also known as Browser messages) as long as your phone has enough memory to store them. If the memory is full, you will be prompted to delete old messages to make room.

▶Voicemail automatically captures calls when you can’t answer your phone or it is turned off. The voicemail system sends a notification to your phone when you have new voice messages or numeric pages.

▶Web Messages include Sprint PCS Wireless Web Messages,* Sprint PCS Wireless Web Updates* and alerts that notify you of new Sprint PCS Wireless Web MailSM*. (For more information, see "Sending Web Messages" on page 68 or "Sprint PCS Wireless Web Update Options" on page 70.)

▶Web Alerts let you know when you receive Sprint PCS Wireless Web Short MailSM * or an AOL Instant Message*. (For more information on each feature, see "The Sprint PCS Wireless Web" on page 104 or "Using AOL Instant Messenger Service" on page 113.)

Note: Sprint PCS Wireless Web services may not be available in certain affiliate areas.
