Note: Touching or does not end a call. (For more information, refer to "Ending a Call" on page 37.) Dialing Emergency Numbers When you call an Emergency Number, such as 911, your phone locks itself in emergency mode, only allowing you to make calls to the emergency call center you originally contacted. This enables emergency operators to more easily dispatch aid. 1. Press Home ➔ Phone. 2. Enter 911 using the touch keypad. 3. Touch to place the call. Note: The emergency number 911 is preset into your phone, and you can dial 911 at almost any time, even when the phone is locked, restricted, or in Airplane Mode. When you call 911, an audible tone plays and an Emergency prompt appears in the display for the duration of the call. (For more information, refer to "Emergency tone" on page 153.) Caution! DO NOT depend on this phone as a primary method of calling 911 or for any other essential or emergency communications. Because of transmission methods, network parameters, and user settings necessary to complete a call from your wireless phone, a connection cannot always be guaranteed. Therefore, emergency calling may not be available on all wireless networks at all times. 32
