Making an emergency call
The Oceana 800, operate using radio signals,
wireless networks, landline networks, and
user-programmed functions. Because of
this, connections in all conditions cannot be
guaranteed. You should never rely solely on any
wireless device for essential communications
like medical emergencies. Emergency calling
requirements for satellite phones vary from
country to country. Always check your
emergency contact numbers and ensure they
are stored on your Terminal before travelling.
Please contact your service provider for specific
country information.
To make an emergency call in the US, dial 911 or
112. Your call will be put through to a call centre
which will connect you to the appropriate
emergency service. Alternatively, select Menu >
Contacts > Emergency numbers. An emergency
call is free of charge. Prepay users do not need
a positive balance to make an emergency call.
Dialling 911 or 112 overides all security locks
and bars on your Terminal.
For details on emergency calling in the rest of
the world, please contact your service provider.
