for the duration of the call.
In a crisis situation, you can aid emergency personnel in finding
you by setting Emergency tone to Alert or Vibrate. (For more
information, refer to “Emergency tone” on page 111.)

and user settings necessary to complete a call from your
wireless phone, a connection cannot always be guaranteed.
