First Time Phone Use
When you turn on the phone for the first time, you will be asked to:
1. Select the language. If the language you want does not appear on-screen, scroll to find the correct language and
press Select to confirm.
2. Review the agreement. Use the navigation button to move up or down. Read the agreement and press Accept to
proceed.
3. Set your country code. For the phone to work correctly according to your country’s standards, you must use the
code for the country you are calling from. For example, the U.S. and Canada use the country code of 1. If you don’t
know your Country’s code, see “Appendix A, Troubleshooting” for a list. Press Clear to make a correction. Press
Enter to confirm the country code.
4. Set your area code. To be able to return local, national or international calls received on the Landline, you must set
your area code. Your phone will update the information and reset itself. If your country does not use area codes,
leave this field blank.
5. Create a Skype Account or sign in to your existing Skype Account. Each Skype account has a unique Skype Name
with a password. If your Skype Name is the same as another Skype user, it will not be accepted. Your existing
Skype Name needs to be at least 6 characters and can be any combination of letters, numbers and symbols. Your
password needs to be at least 4 characters. This password is different from the system PIN of the phone. Each
phone user can have their own Skype account.
