Driver Safety
Questions?
Domestically, for customer care issues including billing issues, general
service needs, or to order additional services, call Nextel Customer Care
at 1-800-639-6111, or dial 611 from your i700plus phone.
To complement the i700plus phone and Nextel Worldwide Service,
Nextel has also launched International Roaming Customer Care
support. When traveling outside of the U.S. and Canada, call 1 (201)

number will be toll-free from your Nextel handset both domestically

Driver Safety
Safe driving is far more important than anything else. So please follow
these tips for using your wireless phone when you’re behind the wheel.
1
Give driving your full attention. Don’t let anything interfere with
your concentration.
2
Assess road conditions before making or taking a call.
3
Let Voice Mail pick up when you’re in heavy traffic or hazardous
road conditions.
4
Program your most frequently dialed numbers into your phone
for Speed Dialing. When dialing manually without the Turbo
Dial™ (one-touch dialing) feature, dial only when your vehicle is
stopped—or have a passenger dial for you.
5
Position your phone where it is easy to see and reach.
6
Keep your eyes on the road. Never take notes while driving.
7
Consider using a hands-free speakerphone,
which allows you to keep both hands on the
wheel when speaking. Hands-free mobile
accessories and car adapter accessories can be
ordered by calling 1-800-914-3240, visiting
nextel.com or contacting your Nextel Authorized Representative.
8
Be a Good Samaritan. Dial 9-1-1 in emergencies to report accidents, impaired or aggressive
drivers, crimes or fires. It’s a free call. Know
your Nextel phone number, so emergency services personnel can
call you back if necessary.

Creating, Editing and
Using Stored Lists
A stored list is made up of names, phone numbers, Private IDs and
Speed Dial numbers. Stored lists are convenient because you do not
need to remember names and numbers. Instead, you simply scroll
through your stored list, press a button and the number is dialed for you.
You can create and edit your lists using any of the following methods:
• Phone based using the Programming functions
• Web/Phone based using List Manager
• Computer/Phone based using Nextel’s iDEN organizer
About This Section
This section includes instructions for the following tasks:

Storing Names and Numbers
This programming function allows you to store up to 100 names, phone
numbers and Private ID numbers. Your i700plus phone will
automatically assign the next available Speed Dial number, which you
can change. Once you have stored an individual, you can call them by
scrolling through the list and finding their name, using the Speed Dial
number or using Nextel Direct Connect (see “Nextel Direct Connect®”
on page 61). And, whenever the person calls you, your phone will
display their name if you entered their 10-digit phone number. The
display holds 12 phone-number characters. If the phone number exceeds
“Plus Dialing” on page 28 before you create a stored list from
your phone. Using Pause Digit Entry and Plus Dialing will
enable you to create stored lists that will save time when
placing calls.

Pause Digit Entry
When storing a number, you can program your phone so that it will not
only dial a number but also pause and enter another series of numbers
such as a personal identification number (PIN) or password. This
feature is particularly useful for automated services such as voice mail
and banking systems.
Here’s how it works! Let’s say you have a company voice mail account
that you frequently check while traveling. And, to access that account
you must do the following:
• Dial your work number;
• Press # while the voice mail greeting is being played; and
• Enter your PIN to access your messages.
You can program your i 700plus phone to enter all of the above
information for you. All you have to do is separate each entry with a
pause. If you were to program your phone to automatically input the
above information, the stored data would look like this
17035551234P#P1234. In this example, the first eleven digits represent
the number that must be dialed to access your voice mail. The P
represents a 3 second pause. The # interrupts your greeting. The second
P represents another 3 second pause. The last four digits represent your
PIN.
You can use this feature not only to enter PINs and passwords but also
to have the phone automatically select menu options (i.e., press 1 to hear
messages).
To create a three-second pause follow the steps below:
Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will
appear on the display screen.
NOTE: You can enter up to 20 numbers/characters in a single entry,
NOTE: If you use a system that will not let you enter an option until
stored or dialed.
the automated message has played in its entirety, you can program your phone to pause for more than 3 seconds. For example, performing the above step twice will program two pauses
and cause your phone to wait 6 seconds before entering the
next set of numbers.

List Manager User Tips
• If you have already created lists on your phone, to avoid losing your
existing lists, send that information to List Manager before
modifying your lists on the List Manager Web site.
• When sending lists from your phone, the transmission to the Web is
immediate. It’s not necessary to confirm the transaction on the Web
site.
• When sending information from the Web site to the phone, you
must confirm the action on your phone.
• If you send information from the Web site to the phone and realize
you have made a mistake, you can decline the update from the
phone. When the New Net Mail message arrives on your phone,
select “Later” then delete the message “*Receive List?” from your
Net Mail Inbox.
• If you have more than one phone, you must register each phone
individually with Nextel. Or, you can register as an Account
Administrator and manage multiple phones.
For List Manager Account Administrators
Account Administrators can manage large groups of phones and
synchronize phone lists across multiple workgroups. To do this,
however, there are a few things you’ll want to know.
• You must register with Nextel as an Account Administrator. To
do so, you will need to provide the following information:
– Account Number
– Billing address zip code
– Last account balance
• If you have registered as an Account Administrator on a master
account, you will have access to all accounts associated with the
master account. If you do not have access to your company’s Nextel
master account, you must register separately for each individual
account you wish to access.
23
Page 32
• Talkgroups cannot be created through List Manager. Please call
Nextel Customer Care at 1-800-639-6111 to have your Talkgroups
set up by a Nextel Customer Care Representative.
• Administrators may register as an individual user and/or an
Account Administrator. However, you do not need to have a Nextel
phone to act as an Account Administrator.
• Administrators can create master lists or templates to send to
multiple users. When sent to a group of users, those templates will
occupy certain positions on the user’s phone list and will overwrite
information already in those positions. For example, an Account
Administrator for the Marketing Department creates a template
for the 30-employee group. If the employee accepts the
Administrator’s template, it will occupy positions 71-100 on
each employee’s phone list. Employees cannot edit, change, delete
or modify information stored in those 30 positions (71-100).
• To avoid loss of information, individual users should be notified in
advance which list positions a template will occupy.
iDEN Organizer
If you want to use your computer to create stored lists for your i700plus
phone, use Nextel’s iDEN Organizer. It’s available for programming
names, phone numbers, and Private IDs into your phone. To order, call
Nextel Nextday

support.

Q
Using T9® Text Input
As you compose email or enter street and Web addresses on your Nextel
phone, you will need to type words, numbers and symbols. Your Nextel
data-capable phone has embedded software, called T9 Text Input, that
makes typing on a phone keypad much like typing on a computer
keyboard: it eliminates the traditional “multi-tap” method of text entry.
As you type, you press only one key per letter. As you type, T9 Text
Input matches your keystrokes to words in its linguistic database of
approximately 60,000 words and proper names. You may also store
additional words you frequently use in your own User Database, which
is incorporated into the entire T9 Database.
Entering Characters, Numbers and Symbols
In applications that require text input, such as Hotmail, Two-Way
Messaging, and Search, there are four text entry modes available: Word,
Alpha, Number, and Symbol.
WORD or Word—activates single-key-press T9 Text Input.
ALPHA or Alpha—activates standard keypad text entry called
NUM—allows entry of keypad numbers.
SYM—allows entry of punctuation symbols such as “@” or “?”.
“multi-tap”.
The menu option in the lower right corner of the phone screen indicates
your current text entry mode. If the option is “word,” you are in T9 Text
Input mode. To change text entry modes, press the right
P until you see
the desired text entry mode.
T9 Navigation Keys
Your phone keys assume different functions while in T9 Text Input
mode just as they did when in Net mode. The following keys will be
instrumental while using T9:
Backspace/Erase: Press once to backspace or to erase a
Q
single character. Press and hold to erase the entire message.
Space: Press once to accept a word and insert a space when
entering text.
Next: Press
0 to display more words that match the keystroke
sequence you entered. Words that you have added to your User
Database will begin appearing after words stored in the T9 Database.

Q
Shift: Press and hold # until you see the text entry mode indicator

text entry mode will appear as “word” or “alpha.” When in uppercase,
the text entry mode will appear as “WORD” or “ALPHA.”
NOTE: The default for word and alpha mode is uppercase at the
beginning of a sentence, lowercase elsewhere.
Punctuation: Press 1 to automatically insert a period, a comma or
an apostrophe. Press

and will display the most commonly used matching word.

change the word on the display to the next most likely word in
the database. Repeat until the desired word appears.

Search
Browse the Internet from your phone! Under Search, Go to Site allows
you to access wireless-enabled (Wireless Application Protocol or WAP)
Internet sites. These WAP sites are specially developed Web sites for
wireless devices, such as your Nextel data-capable phone, and omit the
large pictures and graphics of typical Web sites. The phone screen will
display similar information as on your computer screen except in a
streamlined text format. Hyperlinks embedded within the site are
usually functional and can be accessed by scrolling to and highlighting
the desired link, then pressing
P under “Link”. Should you happen to
access a non-WAP enabled site, your phone may display fragments of
text or an error message. The list of wireless-enabled sites is constantly
growing to provide you with more ways to get business done.

Entering Internet Addresses
To access a commercial (.com) Internet site from the Go to Site screen,

defaults to “.com” Web address categories, so all you need to type is the

“http://www.” prefix and the “.com” suffix for commercial sites. If you
would like to access other Web site categories such as education (.edu),
government (.gov), or networks (.net), you must type the entire Web
address, including the www. and the applicable extension (i.e., .gov,
.org, or .net). (Before typing on your phone, you may want to review

Frequently Asked Questions
Question Answer
What is a bookmark? A bookmark is a shortcut to a
Web page or pages that you
plan to visit often. By
creating bookmarks, you
have an easy way to return to
sites that you like, without
having to remember the Web
address.
Is there a limit to the number
of sites I can bookmark?
Are entries such as
passwords case sensitive?
When can I change the text
input mode?
Is there a limit to the number
of new words I can add to the
User Database?
How long will my words be
saved in the User Database?
You can store 100
bookmarks.
Yes, passwords are case
sensitive and must be typed
exactly as originally entered.
You can change modes at any
time during text entry. The
current text entry mode is
displayed in the lower right
corner of your phone screen.
You may add approximately
150 words to the User
Database before the database
reaches capacity. At that
point, any additional words
that you add will replace the
least used word in the
database. Therefore, there is
no actual limit to the number
of new words you can add to
the User Database.
All words are saved in the
database until it becomes
full. When the database
becomes full, the word used
least recently is removed to
allow entry of an additional
word.

Frequently Asked Questions
Question Answer
Can words be removed from
the T9 Database?
Is there a limit to the length
of the word to be added to
the User Database?
When entering text, how can
I change cases?
What’s the best way to
synchronize existing lists on
my phone with List
Manager?
I don’t have phone numbers
stored on my Nextel datacapable phone. What’s the
quickest way to enter my
frequently used numbers?
Words cannot be removed
from the database. When the
database becomes full, the
least used word is removed
to allow entry of an
additional word.
Words in the User Database
are limited to 32 characters
in length.
To create a capital letter,
press and hold # until the
text entry mode appears in all
capital letters (i.e. “word”
will change to “WORD”).
The next letter you type will
be a capital letter. The text
entry mode will then return
to the default, lowercase.
To avoid losing your existing
lists, you must send them
from your phone to the Web
site first.
Use the convenience of List
Manager to set up your
Speed Dial, Private ID, or
Talkgroup list. Once the
names and numbers are
entered, “send” the list(s)
from the Web site to your
phone.

Question Answer
List Manager data is not
being transmitted from the
Web to my phone. Why?
There are three potential
reasons data sent from the
Web site does not appear on
your phone. 1. You may not
have sent the data to your
phone. Verify that you
selected “send” from the
Web site. 2. Your phone is
not registered with List
Manager. To register, on your
phone, you must enter your
member name and password
(as originally registered with
nextel.com). 3. You didn’t
accept the transmission from
the Web site.
Where is the IMEI number? The IMEI is the number
found on the back of your
phone. To locate the IMEI,
turn off your phone and
remove the battery. The
IMEI is the 15-digit number
located underneath the
barcode.
Why does an error message
appear when I try to access a
Web sit e ?
There are a number of
reasons you may receive an
error message when
attempting to access a Web
site, such as: the Web site is
temporarily unavailable, the
Internet is experiencing a
heavy amount of traffic, or
the page is having difficulty
loading.
