IMPORTANT!
This phone, like any cellular phone, operates using radio signals, cellular and
landline networks, as well as user-programmed functions which can not guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any
cellular 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 cellular signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all cellular phone networks or when
certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local
cellular service providers.
If certain features are in use (keyguard, restrict calls, 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 cellular 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.
4.10 Use emergency key 9
When the emergency key feature is turned on, the phone attempts to make an
emergency call when you press 9 and . The phone dials the emergency
number preprogrammed into your phone.
Note: If you have activated the emergency key 9 feature, you can also dial an
emergency call by pressing and holding 9 until the phone indicates it is
attempting to make an emergency call. This method does not work,
however, when Keyguard is active.

feature code that activates each service. Deactivation codes are used to deactivate

While roaming in some systems outside your home area, your phone may not be recognized by the host system,
which is the system in which you’re traveling. You may not be able to place a call.
Contact your service provider for more specific information on how roaming works with your phone and for
information about coverage limitations.
6.3 NAM selection
The service provider programs your phone with the phone number and system information into your phone’s
memory when your phone is first activated. This is called a Number Assignment Module (NAM).
For example, your phone can be activated in up to 2 different service areas (e.g. one in Chicago or New York, and
maybe one more in New York), each giving your phone a different phone number or account.
Only one number can be active at a time. When you select a phone number, you’re also selecting which system
you’re using as your home system. The first phone number displayed with this menu is the currently selected
number.
Note: It may not be necessary to have three NAMs for your phone if your service provider has service or roaming
agreements for each area in which you wish to use your phone. Contact your service provider for details.

9. REFERENCE INFORMATION
9.1 Emergency Calls
IMPORTANT!
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and
landline networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connections
in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should never rely solely on
any wireless phone for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be switched on and be
used in a service area that has adequate signal strength. Emergency calls might
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.
Always ensure that your phone is properly charged before attempting any
emergency calls. If you allow your battery to become empty, you will be unable to
receive or make calls, including emergency calls. You must then wait a few
minutes after the charging begins to place any emergency calls.
9.1.1 Make an emergency call
If the phone is not on, switch it on.
Enter the emergency number for your present location (for example, 911 or
any other official emergency number—emergency numbers vary by
location).
Press .
If certain features are in use (Keyguard, fixed dialing, restrict calls, and so
on), you might first need to turn those features off before you can make an
emergency call. Consult this guide and your local cellular service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all of the necessary
information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone
might be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident—do
not terminate the call until given permission to do so.
9.2 Troubleshooting
9.2.1 No service
If you’re outside the wireless service area, No service will display on your
phone. No calls can be made or received, however, emergency 911 calls may
still be possible.
9.2.2 What if the call doesn’t go through?
Your phone can make and receive calls only when it’s switched on and in the
wireless network’s service area.
No service
means that you’re probably outside the wireless service area. No
calls can be made or received.
This number is restricted.
means calls to the phone number you tried to
call are restricted (see “Restrict calls”).
