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 areas or circumstances. Therefore, you should never
rely solely on any wireless phone for essential communications (medical
emergencies, for example). Before traveling in remote or underdeveloped areas,
plan an alternate method of contacting emergency services personnel.
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 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.
Restricting Children's access to your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it because they could hurt
themselves and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your phone
bill.
