Dialing Emergency Numbers
When you call an Emergency Number, such as 911, your
phone locks itself in emergency mode, only allowing you to
make calls to the emergency call center you originally
contacted. This enables emergency operators to more easily
dispatch aid.

➔

.
2.

3.
Touch
to place the call.
Note:
The emergency number 911 is preset into your phone,
and you can dial 911 at almost any time, even when the
phone is locked, restricted, or in Airplane Mode.
When you call 911, an audible tone plays and an
Emergency prompt appears in the display for the
duration of the call. (For more information, refer to
“Emergency tone”
on page 153.)
Caution!
DO NOT depend on this phone as a primary method
of calling 911 or for any other essential or emergency
communications. Because of transmission methods,
network parameters, and user settings necessary to
complete a call from your wireless phone, a
connection cannot always be guaranteed. Therefore,
emergency calling may not be available on all
wireless networks at all times.
