Set Phone Line
Your phone can have two service accounts, or phone lines, associated with it. Each phone line has its own phone number.

From Set Phone Line, read the note and select OK and one of the phone lines.

From Location, select one of the following:
•911 Only (default) shares your position information only with emergency services when you call your
