Set up your phone

Make the most out of your phone’s features from the get-go.

When you turn your phone on for the first time, your phone guides you to set up your network

connections, phone settings, and Microsoft account in one sitting.
You need a Microsoft account to back up and restore your phone, to buy, install, and update

apps, and to access some Microsoft services, such as:
• Xbox
• Xbox Music and Xbox Video
• OneDrive
• Hotmail
• Outlook
You can use the same username and password on your computer and phone.
1. Turn your phone on, and follow the instructions shown on your phone.

2. When asked, create a Microsoft account. If you already have an account for Microsoft

services, such as Xbox Live.com, Hotmail.com, or Outlook.com, or you have created a Microsoft

account on your Surface tablet or Windows PC, sign in with that username.
Make sure you remember the credentials for the Microsoft account you added to your

phone. You need them if you want to change the device protection settings or reset your

phone.
