Placing Private Calls

From Private mode, there are also two ways to reach an individual using Nextel Direct Connect. You can enter the person’s Private ID number then press the Push-To-Talk button. Or, you can store the person’s name and Private ID number, then recall the number from a stored list. Whether you dial the person’s Private ID directly or store it in a list—you must have the individual’s Private ID to use Nextel Direct Connect. To learn how to store names and numbers, see “Storing Names and Numbers” on page 17.
