See Connect services. Pricing for each of these services is based on your service contract.

Making Direct Connect Calls

1. Enter a Direct Connect number. See “Dialing Direct

Connect Numbers” on page 29.

2. Press and hold the Direct Connect (DC) button on

the left side of your phone. Begin talking after your phone emits a chirping sound.

3. Release the DC button to listen.

A Direct Connect call ends automatically after there is no activity on the call for several seconds.

Dialing Direct Connect Numbers

Every Direct Connect number has three parts:

䢇 An area ID. 䢇 A network ID. 䢇 A member ID.

An asterisk separates each part (for example: 999*999*9999). When you enter a number containing all three parts, you must separate them with asterisks.

Note: The number of digits in each part of a Direct Connect

number may vary. For example, your Direct Connect number may be formatted as 999*999*9999, while another valid number may appear as 555*555555*55.

If you are calling or saving a Direct Connect number for a Sprint phone with Direct Connect capabilities, the Direct Connect number may be the same as the wireless phone number. When dialing or saving the Direct Connect number, insert asterisks in place of hyphens (913*555*1234).

Tip: When you store a Direct Connect number in Contacts, be

sure to include the entire number, including the asterisks.

Voicemail

Tip: To receive voicemail messages, you must first set up your

voicemail box.

If you are bringing your phone number from another carrier, we suggest you set up your voicemail box after the number you brought to Nextel is active on your Nextel phone and your temporary phone number is deactivated. If you set up your voicemail box prior to this, all messages and all settings (including your greeting and password) will be lost when the number you have brought to Nextel becomes active.

Setting Up Your Voicemail Box

Using your MOTOROLA BRUTE, dial your ten-digit Nextel Personal Telephone Number (PTN). For example: 7035557777. Follow the system instructions to create a new four- to seven-digit password, record your name, and record a greeting. When the system says, “Thank you for using Nextel Voicemail,” your mailbox is set up.

If you are setting up your voicemail from a phone other than your MOTOROLA BRUTE, dial your ten-digit Nextel PTN. When you hear the greeting, press * to

access your voicemail box. The system will prompt you to enter your password. Enter the last seven digits of your Nextel PTN. For example: 5557777. This is your temporary password. Follow the system instructions to complete your mailbox setup.

You are in the main voicemail menu when you hear the voicemail system options.

For details on using your voicemail, follow the audio prompts provided by the voicemail system.
