■ Emergency calls
Important: This device operates using radio signals, wireless networks, 
landline networks, and user-programmed functions. If your device supports 
voice calls over the internet (internet calls), activate both the internet calls 
and the cellular phone. The device will attempt to make emergency calls 
over both the cellular networks and through your internet call provider if 
both are activated. Connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. You 
should never rely solely on any wireless device for essential communications 
like medical emergencies.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the device is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate signal strength. Depending 
on your device, you may also need to complete the following:
• Insert a SIM card if your device uses one.
• Remove certain call restrictions you have activated in your device.
• Change your profile from offline or flight profile mode to an active profile.
2. Press the end key as many times as needed to clear the display and ready the 
device for calls. 
3. Enter the official emergency number for your present location. Emergency 
numbers vary by location.
4. Press the call key.
When making an emergency call, give all the necessary information as accurately as 
possible. Your wireless device may be the only means of communication at the scene 
of an accident. Do not end the call until given permission to do so.
