Emergency Calls

IMPORTANT!

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates by using radio signals,

wireless and landline networks, as well as user-programmed

functions which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions.

Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for

essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be

switched on and in a service area with adequate wireless signal

strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless

phone networks or when certain network services and/or phone

features are in use. Check with local wireless service providers.

Making an Emergency Call
1) If the phone is not on, switch it on by pressing and

holding the

ð

key

2) Press and hold

ù

to go to the start screen

3) Enter the emergency number for your present location

(e.g., 911 or another official emergency number).

Emergency numbers vary by location.

4) Press

ó

If certain features are in use (e.g., Keyguard, Restrict calls, etc.),

you may first need to turn these off before you can make an

emergency call. Please read this document and your local service

provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the

necessary information as accurately as possible. Remember that

your wireless phone may be the only means of communication at

the scene of an accident. Do not end the call until given permission

to do so.
