1: Introduction and
Important Safety Information
Your Iridium Extreme® Push-to-Talk (PTT) device is designed for dual
mode operation providing a global, mobile, reliable communications tool
with access to the largest and most powerful satellite network on
the planet.
Tip: Your device is programmed to power-up in the last mode of
operation (PTT or Phone Mode) that you used as long as the SOS button is
properly configured. If your SOS emergency response contacts have not
been programmed, your device will continue to power-up in Phone Mode
and will prompt you to select GEOS or to program your own emergency
contacts. For instructions on how to program your emergency contacts,
go to Setting Emergency Options, p. 173.
Your Iridium Extreme® PTT device offers a complete range of services
within two separate modes of operation:
Phone Mode: for phone calling, SMS, voicemail, and SOS use
PTT Mode: for Iridium Push-to-Talk (PTT) service
All services and settings for each mode are independently operated
allowing primary usage in PTT Mode only or in Phone Mode only or to
switch between the modes when needed to access different services.
