to use.

activate automatically when you irst turn
it on. You will see a Hands Free Activation
screen at startup. When it’s inished, tap
OK to continue. To conirm your activation,
make a phone call.
If you received your phone in the mail and
it is going to be activated on an existing
number (you’re swapping phones), go
to sprint.com/activate and follow the
instructions. When you have inished,
make a phone call to conirm
your activation.
