Enhanced 911 (E911) Information
This phone features an embedded Global Positioning System
(GPS) chip necessary for utilizing E911 emergency location
services where available. When you place an emergency 911
call, the GPS feature of your phone begins to seek
information to calculate your approximate location.
Depending on several variables, including availability and
access to satellite signals, it may take up to 30 seconds or
more to determine and report your approximate location.
