When making an emergency call, remember to give all the
necessary information as accurately as possible. Remember
that your cellular 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.
Emergency key 9
With this feature on, the phone attempts to make an
emergency call when you press 9, then
ó
. The phone
dials the emergency number pre-programmed into your
phone.
Note: You can also dial an emergency call by pressing and
holding 9 until the phone indicates it is attempting to make an
emergency call. However, this method does not work when
Keyguard is active or when the phone is connected to a
modem.
Activating Emergency key 9
Press Menu 4 1 1 (Settings - Call settings - Emergency
key 9), scroll to On to activate or Off to cancel, then
press OK.
IMPORTANT!
Official emergency numbers vary by location (e.g. 911). Only
one emergency number is programmed into your phone to be
dialed automatically by Emergency key 9, which may not be the
proper number in all circumstances.
Entering letters and numbers
You can enter letters, as well as numbers, when storing
information into your phone by using your phone’s
keypad. When you see the letter you wish to enter,
simply press the key associated with that letter until it
appears on the display (numbers also appear).
ABC mode
When you need to enter letters into your phone, it will
automatically switch over to
mode.
