Sending a Call Alert
You can send a Call Alert, which lets the recipient know that you would
like to talk with them. When you send an alert, the recipient’s phone
will chirp several times and your name/number will appear on their
display, if they have stored your Private ID.
Receiving/Responding to a Call Alert
When you receive an alert, your phone will automatically change to
Prvt Ready mode. It will also chirp and you will see the name or the
number (if you have not stored the individual in a list) of the caller.
NOTE: Call Alert allows you to contact another Nextel Direct Connect
subscriber at no cost and avoid airtime charges.
NOTE: Until you answer or clear the Call Alert, you will not receive
any additional Phone, Private, or Group calls.
