Section 3: Call Functions
This section explains how to make or answer a call. This section
also includes the features and functionality associated with
making or answering a call.

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, such
as police, fire fighting, and emergency medical personnel.
1.
With the phone on, press the
Dialer
soft key. The touch
keypad screen appears in the display.
2.
Enter 911 using the touch keypad.
3.
Press
or the
Voice Call
soft key to place the call.
Important!:
Emergency number 911 is preset into your phone.
If you call 911 an audible tone is heard and an Emergency
prompt appears in the display for the duration of the call.
Important!:
Because of various 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.
Important!:
DO NOT depend on this phone as a primary method of calling
911 or for any other essential or emergency communications.
Note:
You can specify other numbers than 911 as emergency numbers using
the
Emergency #
settings. (For more information, refer to
“Emergency
#”
on page 118.)
Manual Pause Calling
When you call automated systems (like banking services), you
are often required to enter a password or account number.
