person you are trying to reach.
2. Touch Add text and select a text, if you want to attach a preset text to the alert.
Important:
Preset text messages with Call Alerts can only be sent to and from Direct

Direct Connect subscriber without this capability (such as a Nextel user), the user
will receive the Call Alert but will not receive the text message.

3. Press and release the DC button. (The receiving phone emits an incoming tone and
displays an alert.)
If you get an error message saying that your contact "is not reachable via Direct

or highlighted a valid Direct Connect number.
