Making Emergency Phone Calls

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

Dial 911 to be connected to an emergency response center.

When you make an emergency call, your Smartphone’s GPS Enabled feature can help emergency service personnel find you, if you are in a location where your Smartphone'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. See “GPS Enabled” on page 158, and particularly “IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in Mind” on page 158 and “Making an Emergency Call” on page 159, for more information on the limitations of this feature. 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.

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

Important: If you are bringing your phone number to Nextel from your previous carrier, you may receive a temporary telephone number while your Smartphone is being programmed with your permanent phone number. If you make a call to 911 and the call fails, the 911 emergency response center will not be able to call you back on your Smartphone if in the meantime, your Smartphone has been programmed with your permanent telephone number. If the call is disconnected before location and details have been provided, call 911 again and advise that you were disconnected.
