Emergency calls

Your service provider programs one or more emergency phone numbers that you can call under any circumstances, even when your phone is locked or the SIM card is not inserted.

Note: Emergency numbers vary by country. Your phone’s preprogrammed emergency number(s) may not work in all locations, and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network, environmental, or interference issues.

Your phone supports emergency calling. Emergency phone calls can be made even when your SIM card is blocked or not in your phone.

Dial 911 or your local emergency number to be connected to an emergency response center. If you are on an active call, you must end it before making an emergency call.

When you make an emergency call, your phone’s GPS Enabled feature can help

emergency service personnel find you, if you are in a location where your phone's GPS antenna has established a clear view of the open sky and your local emergency response center has the equipment to process location information. Because of the limitations of this feature, always provide your best knowledge of your location to the emergency response center when you make an emergency call.

Note: Emergency calls cannot be placed while the keypad is locked.

Note: If you have not registered on the network, emergency calls cannot be placed while your SIM card is in your phone.
