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, proceed as follows.
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your present
location (for example, 112 or any other official
emergency number). Emergency numbers vary
by location.
3. Press the
key.
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.

Other Important Safety Information
• Only qualified personnel should service the phone
or install the phone in a vehicle. Faulty
installation or service may be dangerous and may
invalidate any warranty applicable to the device.
• Check regularly that all wireless phone
equipment in your vehicle is mounted and
operating properly.
• Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or
explosive materials in the same compartment as
the phone, its parts or accessories.
• For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember
that an air bag inflates with great force. Do not
place objects, including both installed or portable
wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or
in the air bag deployment area. If wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the air bag
inflates, serious injury could result.
• Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft.
The use of wireless phones in aircraft may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, and is
illegal.
• Failure to observe these instructions may lead to
the suspension or denial of telephone services to
the offender, or legal action, or both.
Care and Maintenance
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories
out of the reach of small children’s.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and
liquids contain minerals that will corrode
electronic circuits.
