IMPORTANT!

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user-programmed functions which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).

If you make an emergency call, your phone changes to emergency call mode. If you choose to exit this mode, emergency operators may not be able to contact you. Keep your phone in emergency call mode until emergency personnel arrive on the scene. In emergency call mode, some menu items may not be available. To exit emergency call mode, at the Start screen, press Exit. When the question Restore normal service? appears, click OK.

Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be switched on and in a service area with adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local service providers.

If certain features are in use (Keyguard, call restrictions, etc.), you may first need to turn those features off before you can make an emergency call. Consult this document and your local cellular service provider.

When making an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone may be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident - do not cut off the call until given permission to do so.
