Emergency calls

IMPORTANT!

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates 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 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 service providers.

Making an emergency call

1 If the phone is not on, switch it on.

2 Press and hold the

key for several seconds to

ready the phone for calls.

3 Key in the emergency number for your present location

(e.g. 911 or other official emergency number). Emergency
numbers vary by location.

4 Press Call

If certain features are in use (Keyguard, call restrictions, etc.), you may
first need to turn those features off before you can make an emergency
call. Consult this document and your local cellular 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 cut off the call until given permission to do so.
