Setting up service on your new phone is quick and easy. This section walks you through the necessary steps to unlock your phone, set up your voicemail, establish passwords, and contact Qwest for assistance with your wireless service.

Section 1A: Setting Up Service 3

Getting Started

Unlocking Your Phone

To unlock your phone, follow these easy steps:

1. Press to turn the phone on.

2. Select Unlock (left softkey).

3. Enter your four-digit lock code. (For security purposes, the code is not

visible as you type.)

Tip:

If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits of your wireless phone number or try 0000. If neither of these work, call Qwest Wireless®Repair at 1-888-879-0611.

Note:

To select a softkey, press the key directly below the softkey text that is displayed at the bottom left and bottom right of your phone’s display screen. Softkey actions change according to the screen you’re viewing and will not be displayed if there is no corresponding action available.

2. Follow the system prompts to:

䡲

For more information about using your voicemail, see “Using Voicemail” on page 175.
