A Suggestion For Your First Call.
After you’ve activated your Omnipoint account, one of the first calls
you make should be to personalize your Answering Machine. All calls
to your Answering Machine will be charged at the Off-Peak rate.
Here’s how to set up your Answering Machine:
• Dial , then press to place your
call.
• Listen and follow each recorded instruction to create your
password and to record your name and your personal
greeting.
• Press when finished. Now your Answering Machine
is ready to answer your calls when you can’t answer, you’re
busy with another call, or your phone is powered off or out
of the Omnipoint coverage area. (See p. 23 for more
information.)

Your Ericsson User’s Manual.
This Omnipoint User Guide covers basic information on operating
your Ericsson handset.
But you’ll need to know equally important safety information before
using your handset. And there’s also a lot more you can do to
customize the operation of your handset, including special memory
and menu functions.
For complete reference to all handset safety information and
operating features, see the handy Ericsson User’s Manual that comes
in this kit.
