number any time, even when your phone is locked or restricted.

restricted. If you call 911 an audible tone is heard and an
Emergency prompt displays on the screen for the duration of the
call.

call from your wireless phone, a connection cannot
always be guaranteed. Therefore, emergency calling
may not be available on all wireless networks at all
times.
DO NOT depend on this phone as a primary method of
calling 911 or for any other essential or emergency
communications.
Remember to always turn your phone on and check for adequate
signal strength before placing a call.
