• Emergency Calls

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).

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.

Always ensure your phone is properly charged before attempting any
emergency calls. If you allow your battery to become empty, you are
unable to receive or make calls, including emergency calls. You must wait
a few minutes after charging begins to place any emergency calls.

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 terminate the call until given permission to do so.
