3. Select Set up two-step verification
4. Select Email address or Mobile number option and select Next.
5. Enter the New Zealand mobile number or email address that you'd like to receive verification codes on and select Next. The email address can't be the current Xtra Mail email address or alias for that email address. 
6. A six digit code will be sent to that email address or mobile number. Enter code and select Confirm and enable. 

You'll then be taken back to two-step verification page showing the email address or mobile number you have set up with the option to turn off two-step verification.
