It is recommended that you periodically check your voicemail by dialing 1 + area code + your Sprint PCS Phone Number. Setting Up Voicemail The first thing you'll want to do after activating your phone is to set up voicemail. See Section 1 page 12 for instructions. Message Types There are three types of messaging functions available on your Sprint PCS Phone. Voicemail, Numeric Paging and Sprint PCS Wireless Web Messaging allow you to receive messages as long as your phone has enough memory locations to store them. And you can send e-mail from your Sprint PCS Wireless Web. Voicemail captures calls automatically when you can't answer your phone or it is turned off. The voicemail system sends a notification to your phone letting you know when you have new voice messages waiting in your voicemail box. Numeric paging allows a caller to enter a phone number into your voicemail box instead of a voice message. The phone number appears on your phone as a numeric page. Sprint PCS Wireless Web Messaging (also known as Text Messaging) allows messages to appear as short alphanumeric messages on your phone's display screen. You must purchase a Wireless Web Plan in order to receive text messages on your Sprint PCS Phone. 62 Managing Messaging
