■ Emergency calls
Important: This device operates using radio signals, wireless networks,
landline networks, and user-programmed functions. If your device
supports voice calls over the internet (internet calls), activate both the
internet calls and the cellular device. The device may attempt to make emergency
calls over both the cellular networks and through your internet call provider if both
are activated. Connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. You should
never rely solely on any wireless device 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.
Depending on your device, you may also need to complete the following:
•
Insert a SIM card if your device uses one.
•
Remove certain call restrictions you have activated in your device.
•
Change your profile from the offline or flight profile to an active profile.
2. Press the end key as many times as needed to clear the display and ready the
device for calls.
3. Enter the official emergency number for your present location. Emergency
numbers vary by location.
4. Press the call key.
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.
