NOTE: If you receive “System Busy, Try Later”, press
e
to redial the
number automatically. You will hear a ring-back tone when the
call is successful.
Emergency Calling
Nextel phones fully support emergency calling. To place a call in an
emergency, dial
911e
. You will be connected to the nearest
emergency dispatch center. If you are on an active call, you must end it
before calling 911.
Special Dialing Codes
Nextel supports “non-emergency” numbers (such as #77, 311,...)
provided by local and state governments. These numbers are used to
report traffic accidents, motorist problems, careless drivers or any other
non-emergency incidents. If the situation includes imminent danger or
loss of life, you should dial 911. Nextel does not yet support all local
and state non-emergency numbers but is continuously expanding
support.
Placing International Phone Calls
Nextel Worldwide Service allows for International Roaming of your
Nextel phone to other iDEN networks.
When dialing internationally, you can either enter the international
access code (011 in the United States) directly or use “Plus Dialing”.
NOTE: Your
phone’s default is “International Calls Restricted.” There-
fore, you must call Customer Care at 1-800-639-6111 to obtain
international dialing access.
Plus Dialing
This feature enables you to place an international call from most
countries—without entering the local international access code.
