Emergency Calls

Your phone was programmed with an
emergency number (911) when it was
manufactured. The programmed emergency
number can be dialed and called at any time, if
there is a 911 system available, regardless of
any call restrictions you have set through the
Locks menu (see page 27). A representative
from your service provider or the retail outlet
where you purchased your phone should be able
to change the emergency number in your phone,
if a 911 system is not available in your service
area.
If police, fire, or medical help is needed, dial 911
or your emergency number and press Y. Tell
the dispatcher that you are calling from a
wireless phone. Wireless 911 calls do not
automatically provide emergency personnel
with your name, location, or phone number.
The dispatcher will want to know the following:
1. Your name and wireless phone number.
2. The nature of the emergency.
3. If police, fire, or medical assistance is needed.
4. The exact location of the emergency
including cross streets, mileposts, or
landmarks.
5. How many people are involved, their
condition, and if help is being administered.

International Calls

If allowed by your system, you can place
international calls with your phone just as you
would from any other phone. If you have
