SIM Card Security

If your SIM card is not in the SIM card holder, it may
be in the box your handset came in, attached to the
SIM carrier. If this is the case, carefully detach your
SIM card from the surrounding plastic and insert it as
descr ibed in “Inserting Your SIM Card” on page 13.

SIM Card Security

Mike’s Direct Connect Service

There ar e two ways of communicating over Mike’s
Direct Connect service:

• one-to-one using a private call

• one-to-many in a group call

Both of these methods are very similar to two- way
radio, and at a f raction of the cost of traditional
cellular. Mike’s Direct Connect also offers the Call
Alert feature , which gives recipients a notice, similar
to a ringer, that you would like to speak to them.

One-to-One Private Calls

Making Private Calls

1 If the flip is open, enter the Private ID you want to

call. -or-
If the flip is closed, select the number as you would

when making a phone call.

2 Press and hold the PTT button on the side of your

phone. Begin talking after your handset emits a
chirping sound.

3 Release the PTT button to listen.

Tip: To let someone know that you want to talk to

him or her on a Private call, send a call alert.
See “Call Alerts” on page 19.

Every Private ID number contains 3 parts — an area
ID, a fleet ID, and a member ID — with asterisks
between each of these parts. For example:
999*999*9999.

When you place a Pr ivate call, you must enter the
entire Private ID number including the a s terisks.

When you store a Private ID number in Contacts,
include the asterisks with the entire Private ID
number in case you travel with your handset, or
another Private ID user, outside of your network.

From the Keypad

To enter the Private ID you want to call, press the
numbers on the keyp ad.

If you make a mistake:

• To clear a digit, press A under Delete.

• To clear all digits, press and hold A under Delete.

• To insert or de le te a dig it anywhere in the string of

digits you have entered, scroll left or right.

• To cancel, press e.

Mike’s Direct Connect Service

From the Recent Calls List

The recent calls list stores the last 20 calls you made

To select a Private ID from the recent calls list as the
number you want to call:

1 From the idle screen, scroll down. -or-

From the ma in menu, select Recent Calls.

2 Scroll to the name or Private ID number you want

to call.

From Cont acts

If you have Private IDs stored in Contacts, you can
use these numbers to make calls. For information on
entering numbers into Contacts, see “Creating
