Making Calls
Using Call Alerts
Sending a Call Alert lets the recipient know you want to talk
to him or her on a Walkie-Talkie call. When you send a Call
Alert, the recipient’s phone emits a series of beeps or vibrates,
and displays your name or Walkie-Talkie number.
The recipient can:
䢇 Answer — Call the sender via Walkie-Talkie.
䢇 View — View the time and date on which the Call Alert
was received.
䢇 Dismiss — Delete the Call Alert.
Sending Call Alerts
To send a Call Alert:
1. Enter the Walkie-Talkie number you want to send the
alert to.
2. Press Alert (left softkey).
3. Press the Walkie-Talkie button until Alert Sent to appears
on the display screen.
If the alert is not successful, this may mean the person you
are trying to reach is on a call or has the phone turned off.
Responding to a Call Alert
Note:
You can send a Call Alert from Call History. Press
O > Call History > All Calls or Walkie-Talkie Calls, highlight the
number you want to send a Call Alert to and press
Alert (left
softkey).

You can set a distinctive ringer for Call Alerts. See “Ringer
