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:

If the phone is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate signal strength. Some
networks may require that a valid SIM card is properly inserted in the phone.

Press End as many times as needed to clear the display and ready the
phone for calls.

Key in the official emergency number for your present location. Emergency
numbers vary by location.

Press Call.

If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those features off 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 phone may be the only means of communication at the
scene of an accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
