Enhanced 9-1-1 (E 9-1-1) Information
This phone features an embedded Global Positioning System (GPS) chip necessary for utilizing E
9-1-1 emergency location services where available.
When you place an emergency 9-1-1 call, the GPS feature of your phone seeks information to
calculate your approximate location. Depending on several variables, including availability and
access to satellite signals, it may take up to 30 seconds or more to determine and report your
approximate location.
Important: Always report your location to the 9-1-1 operator when placing an emergency call.
Some designated emergency call takers, known as Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs), may
not be equipped to receive GPS location information from your phone.
