3. You can also activate your service using your handset. Here’s
how:
> Turn On Your Handset. After fully charging your battery,
your handset should still be on (since this is necessary to
charge the battery). However, if your handset has been
turned off, turn it on by pressing the G key until the
display lights up.
> Call Omnipoint Customer Care. Just dial 611,
then press F to place your call. When you call, we’ll give
you all the facts you need and answer any questions. We’ll
also ask you:
• Your NAME, ADDRESS, HOME PHONE, and SOCIAL
SECURITY NUMBER.
• Your PREFERRED PAYMENT OPTION. You can pay your
bill either by credit card, check, automatic checking
withdrawal, or in cash at any Omnipoint Center. There are
also convenient pre-pay options.
• We’ll discuss feature packages to help you choose the one
that’s best for you.
> When your call is complete, press G to hang up.
It’s that easy.
Once your service is activated, we’ll send a short text message to your
handset to let you know that you’re ready to make calls and use the
many other features available to you on the Omnipoint network.

LET’S GET STARTED
You can start using your Omnipoint handset by following these
simple steps. Here’s all you have to do.
> First, Charge Your Battery. Snap the adaptor onto the
bottom of your handset. Plug the cord into the adaptor. Plug
the Travel Charger into any 120V AC outlet. Turn on the
handset by pressing and holding the G key. The battery is
fully charged when the indicator on the right-hand side of the
display shows solid black. (See p. 17 for additional
information on battery charging – and for important safety
information, see your Ericsson User’s Manual.)
> Read The Omnipoint “Who & Why” Brochure. You’ll
get a quick review of the features and benefits that make
Omnipoint service so attractive – the right choice for both
your personal and business communication needs.
> Choose A Feature Package. Decide which Omnipoint
feature package best suits your needs.
Now you’re ready to activate your Omnipoint account.
