Making Emergency 911
Cellular Calls in Direct Talk
Mode
Emergency 911 cellular calls can be made in Direct
Talk mode as long as you are within a Nextel
coverage area. When making an emergency 911
cellular call, your phone will automatically exit
Direct Talk mode and attempt to find a signal. If
you are out of Nextel's coverage area, your phone
will not find a signal and the 911 call will not be
placed.
Dial 911 to be connected to an emergency
response center. If you are on an active Direct Talk
call, you must end it before calling 911.
