Push to talk (PTT) (network service) provides direct

voice communication connected with the push of a key.

With push to talk, you can use your device as you would

use a walkie-talkie.
You can use push to talk to have a conversation with

one person or with a group of people, or to join a

channel. A channel is like a chat room: you can call the

channel to see if anyone is online. The channel call does

not alert the other participants; the participants just

join the channel and start speaking with each other.
In push to talk communication, one person talks while

the other participants listen through the built-in

loudspeaker. Participants take turns responding to

each other. Because only one participant can talk at a

time, the maximum duration of a speech turn is limited.

For details of the speech turn duration for your network,

contact your network operator or service provider.
Remember to hold the device in front of you during a

push to talk call so you can see the display. Speak

towards the microphone, and do not cover the

loudspeaker with your hands.
Phone calls always take priority over push to talk.
Before you can use push to talk, you must define the

push to talk access point and push to talk settings. You

may receive the settings in a special text message from

the service provider that offers the push to talk service.
