Now you’re ready for the good part: how simple and satisfying it
is to use your Omnipoint handset. 

Your handset can make and receive calls only when it is switched on,
has a valid SIM Card inserted and is located in the Omnipoint
coverage area or in a “roaming” network.

To make a call, just follow these simple steps.

> If your handset is off, press

(on CF337, press 

PWR

) and

hold until you hear a click.  The display will light up.  In a few
seconds, “OMNIPOINT” will be displayed.

> Dial the 

Number

, just as you would from your home phone. 

If it’s in the same area code as your Omnipoint number,
enter the 7-digit number.  

If you’re calling to another area code, dial 

, the 3-digit

area code, and the number. 

For international calls, dial 

, plus the

country code, and the number you’re dialing, including
area code.  

> As you dial, the number you’re dialing will appear on your

display.  If you make an error while dialing, press 

once to

erase the last digit on your display, or press and hold 

to

erase the entire display so you can begin again.

> Press 

to put your call through.  While you talk, you’ll see

the elapsed time of your call in the display.

> To end your call, press 

.
