Enhanced 911 (E911) Information

This phone includes Global Positioning System which is used for E911 emergency location services,
where available.
When you place an emergency 911 call, the GPS feature of your phone seeks information to calculate
your approximate location. Depending on several variables, including availability and access to
satellite signals, it may take up to 30 seconds to determine and report your approximate location.
Important: Always report your location to the 911 operator when placing an emergency call. Some
designated emergency call takers, known as Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs), may not be
equipped to receive GPS location information from your phone.

RECEIVE PHONE CALLS

When you receive a phone call from a contact, the Incoming call screen appears and displays the
caller ID icon, name, and phone number of the calling party. When you receive a phone call from
someone who is not stored in Contacts, only the default caller ID icon and phone number appear on
the Incoming call screen.
Note: If your phone is turned off, all calls automatically go to voicemail.
