Calling emergency services

Regardless of your 3-digit emergency code (911, 111, 999, 000, etc.), your phone operates as described below.

You can call the code even if your phone is locked, has no balance, or your account is restricted. When

you call, your phone enters Emergency mode. This enables the emergency service exclusive access to your phone to call you back, if necessary. To make or receive regular calls after dialing the code, you must exit this mode.

Using your phone in an airplane

While in an airplane, it is normally required that you turn off your mobile phone because it emits RF signals that interfere with air traffic control.

In Airplane mode, however, your phone will not emit RF signals. You cannot make or receive calls, send text messages, or use the Web, but you can play games, use the Scheduler, set the clock, and make emergency calls to designated emergency numbers.

Note: Please check with uniformed personnel before operating your phone in Airplane mode.

Setting Airplane mode
