Emergency Calling

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

To place a call in an emergency, press 911s. You will be connected to the nearest emergency dispatch center. If you are on an active call, you must end it before calling 911.

NOTE:If you have enabled the Keypad Lock feature, you must unlock the phone’s keypad before any calls can be made, including 911 emergency calls.

Special Dialing Codes

Non-Emergency Numbers

Nextel supports many “non-emergency” numbers (such as #77, 311,...) provided by local and state governments. These numbers are used to report non-emergency incidents. If the situation includes imminent danger or loss of life, you should dial 911.

Telecommunications Relay Service

Nextel supports services for communicating with speech and/or hearing impaired individuals. You can press 711 to reach a local Telecommunications Relay Center. You will then be connected to your destination number. Relay service works through a Communications Assistant who reads messages typed into a TDD/TTY device by a speech or hearing impaired individual to you. The Communications Assistant then types your spoken messages to the hearing or speech impaired individual. Telecommunications Relay Service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and every call is strictly confidential.

NOTE:Using 711 to reach Telecommunications Relay Service may not be available in all areas.

Receiving a Phone Call

Incoming calls are indicated by a ring, vibration, or backlight illumination. The screen will display:

•the caller’s name if stored in your Phonebook, or

•the 10-digit phone number if Caller ID information is available.
