ca

lls

Your service provider programs one or more

emergency phone numbers, such as 911, on your

phone. Provided that the phone is switched on and in

network coverage, you can make emergency calls

using the programmed numbers, even when your

phone is locked or the SIM card is not inserted

(where allowed by the network operator)

.

Check with your service provider, as emergency

numbers vary by country. Your phone’s pre-

programmed emergency number(s) may not work in

all locations, and sometimes an emergency call

cannot be placed due to network, environmental, or

interference issues. Do not solely rely on your

wireless phone for essential communications, such

as medical emergencies.

music

When music is what you need...

To use the music player, insert a microSD memory

card, which is an optional accessory.

The music player supports MP3, MIDI, iMelody, and

AMR music file formats. Your phone cannot play

MA or AAC or AAC+ or AAC++ files, or MP3 files

with a bit rate higher than 320 kbps.
