Private Call
There are several ways to reach an individual using Nextel Direct Connect:
•
Enter the person’s Private ID from the keypad.
•
Select the person’s Private ID from your Phonebook.
•
Select the person’s Private ID from your Recent Calls list.
•
Call a Private ID, if it is your most recent call.
NOTE: The Recent Calls list displays briefly after each Private or
Group Call.
Whether you dial the person’s Private ID directly or use a number stored in your
Phonebook or Recent Calls list, you must have the individual’s Private ID to use
Nextel Direct Connect. To learn how to store names and numbers, see
“Phonebook” on page 41.
NOTE: When dialing or storing a Private ID, the asterisks must be
entered as part of the Private ID in order to make a Nextel Direct
