■ Emergency calls

Important: Wireless phones,
including this phone, operate
using radio signals, wireless
networks, landline networks, and
user-programmed functions.
Because of this, connections in
all conditions cannot be
guaranteed. You should never
rely solely on any wireless phone
for essential communications
like medical emergencies.

To make an emergency call:

1. If the device is not on, switch it on.

Check for adequate signal strength.
Some networks may require that a
valid UIM (CDMA SIM) card is
properly inserted in the device.

2. Press the End key as many times as

needed to clear the display and ready
the device for calls.

3. Key in the official emergency number

for your present location. Emergency
numbers vary by location.

4. Press the Call key.

If certain features are in use, you may first
need to turn those features off before
you can make an emergency call. If the
device is in an offline or flight mode you
must change the profile to activate the
phone function before you can make an
emergency call. Consult this guide or
your service provider. When making an
emergency call, give all the necessary
information as accurately as possible.
Your wireless device may be the only
means of communication at the scene of
an accident. Do not end the call until
given permission to do so.
