Emergency Calls
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 on any wireless phone for essential communications
(medical emergencies, for example).
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.
To make an emergency call:
1.
If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2.
Key in the emergency number for your present location (for
example, 911 or other official emergency number). Emergency
numbers vary by location.
3.
Press
.
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example), you may first
need to deactivate those features 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 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.
Restricting Children's access to your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it
because they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or
make calls that increase your phone bill.
