Learn to use your Nextel Phone in just minutes!
We’ve prepared this guide as a quick and easy way for you to begin enjoying your new Nextel Phone. By reading it now, you’ll be able to take full advantage of all the benefits your Nextel service provides for you and your company.
We’ve also attached a handy Reference Guide ... to help you get
started on your Nextel Phone right away. You can always consult this guide later for more in-depth information.
Activating your Phone
Before you can begin using your Nextel Phone, you’ll need to activate your service. If there is a separate activation sheet in this package, simply follow the step-by-step instructions included. Or, if you purchased your phone through a Nextel Sales Representative, your phone should be active already. However, if your display reads “No Service” or doesn’t change from “Please Wait” when you turn your phone on, call Nextel Customer Care at 1-800-639-6111.
Note to first-time users:
To properly register on the network, you must turn your Nextel Phone on in your local calling area prior to traveling.
Charging your Battery
You should charge your Nextel Phone’s battery for at least 16 hours before initial use. This allows it to achieve maximum capacity and life. After the initial charging, your battery can be charged more quickly.
To charge the battery that came with your phone, place it in the charger as illustrated. You can also place your Nextel Phone in the charger with the battery attached. Make sure your phone is turned OFF. The battery is fully charged when the charger display light turns solid green, 80% charged when it blinks green and less than 80% charged when the display light is red.

Useful Information
Enjoy quality digital Nextel service with NO ROAMING CHARGES!
Nextel’s all-digital National Network is constantly expanding. We currently provide quality service in over 400 cities throughout the U.S. and Canada. So whether you’re located in New York or Miami ... whether you travel to Dallas or Chicago ... or whether you’re relocating to Denver or San Diego, you’ll be sure to have crystal-clear Nextel digital service every time.
Of course, no matter where you go on the Nextel National Network, you’ll always take your digital services and low home market rates with you ... with no roaming charges. So if you travel to San Francisco, every local call you make there would be billed as a local call by Nextel. You’d only pay long distance for calls you make to locations outside the local San Francisco calling area!
Add to that flat-rate long distance pricing and one-second call rounding after the first minute and you’ll see how your savings can really add up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Which services or calling features follow me when
I travel?
A. All digital cellular calling services, including Voice
Mail, Paging and related features follow you no matter where you use your phone on the Nextel National Network. Nextel Direct ConnectSMcan only be used in your local market.
Q. What number is dialed to reach me when I’m traveling
on the Nextel National Network?
A. Every Nextel subscriber gets a regular 10-digit Personal
Telephone Number — a 3-digit area code, plus a 7-digit local number. This number is used just like any phone number. And it doesn’t matter where you’re traveling ... you’ll get the call. However, if you are traveling long distance and someone calls you from your home market using only your 7-digit number, you will be charged long distance for the call.
Q. How are calls on the Nextel National Network priced? A. Local calls are priced according to your home market rates,
no matter where you are on the Nextel National Network. For long distance calls, you are charged a flat rate per minute, no matter where you call in the U.S. There are no roaming charges associated with any digital calls made while traveling, and there are no incremental access fees to pay for use of the network.
Q. If I live in Chicago, travel to Denver and make a local
call there, how would that call be priced?
A. Local is always local with Nextel! You would be charged
local rates, because a local call placed in Denver is a local call, regardless of where your home market is located.
Q. How long will my battery last on standby? What is the
talk time?
A.
It depends on the battery you are using. The slim+ NiMH 600 mAh battery provided with the phone has approximately
25.5 hours of standby and approximately 150 minutes of talk time.

Customer accepts responsibility for Airtime charges from invoicing telephone calls to its mobile unit from the time that Customer responds to the call.
