Quick Start Guide
Transferring your Address Book
If switching from a digital (TDMA) phone to a NEC a232
You will need to manually transfer numbers from one phone’s address book to
another by following the instructions in your phone’s User Guide.
If switching from a next generation (GSM/GPRS) phone to a NEC a232
Next Generation phones such as the NEC a232 often allow you to save contacts to
your phone or to your SIM card (which is a memory chip that you can remove and
insert into future next generation phones that you use). If this option is available to
you, and you think you may decide to change phones (to another Next Generation
phone) at any time, be sure to save all your contacts to your SIM card so that you can
simply take your address book with you. To use your SIM for storing contact
information, select the
Menu softkey | Phone book icon (press the scroll key center to
‘select’) | and press the ‘Phonebook’ softkey until the ‘SIM’ phonebook type appears on the
screen
. To start adding contacts to your SIM, press the top right softkey to
Add new
,
enter the name and number, and press the scroll key center to select
“OK”
.
Note:
SIM cards are able to save 250 numbers, and only one number per name.
Setting Up Voice Mail
Please to refer to the Welcome Guide, which you received with your phone, for full
instructions on how to set up your Voice Mail service. For the NEC a232, be sure to
follow the “Next Generation” phone instructions and use 1111 as your temporary Voice
Mail password.
Note:
You’ll want to set up your Voice Mail as soon as possible, since this
service is active immediately and callers may be leaving messages for you.
Using Text Messaging
Have you ever wanted to reach someone, but know that they are in a place where they
can’t receive a phone call, or have you just wanted to pass a quick comment along
without making it into a long voice conversation? Text Messaging may just be for you.
Text messaging is already active on your phone, and any messages that you receive are
FREE. This is especially handy because it means you may be able to receive info alerts
for free from sites such as CNN.com, or the Weather Channel, etc. PC users can also send
150 character-long emails to your phone using your 10 digit telephone
[email protected] as the email address. To illustrate, the format of the address would
look something like this:
To respond to text messages, it’s just a dime per message that you send, or you can get a
money-saving text messaging plan if you become a frequent user. To switch to a text
messaging plan at any time, simply call #TXT from your wireless phone and add the
service using our automated ordering line. Using text messaging is easy. See the
following instructions, which can be used on virtually any NEC phone.
