IMPORTANT!
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio
signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user-
programmed functions which cannot guarantee connection
in all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon
any wireless phone for essential communications (e.g.
medical emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be
switched on and in a service area with adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless
phone networks or when certain network services and/or
phone features are in use. Check with local service providers.
If certain features are in use (Keyguard, call restrictions, etc.),
you may first need to turn those features off before you can
make an emergency call. Consult this document and your
local cellular service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the
necessary information as accurately as possible. Remember
that your wireless phone may be the only means of
communication at the scene of an accident - do not cut off
the call until given permission to do so.
