Setting Up Your Voicemail

All unanswered calls to your PCS Phone are automatically transferred to voicemail, even if your phone is in use or turned off. Therefore, you will want to set up your voicemail and personal greeting as soon as your PCS Phone is activated.

To set up voicemail:

1.Press and hold .

2.Follow the system prompts to create your passcode, record your greeting, record your name announcement, and choose whether to activate One-Touch Message Access (a feature that

lets you access messages simply by pressing and holding , bypassing the need for you to enter your passcode).

Note: The voicemail setup process may vary in certain Affiliate areas.

For more information about using your voicemail, see “Using Voicemail” on page 166.
