Making Calls When you make an emergency call, your phone's GPS Enabled feature can help emergency service personnel find you, if you are in a location where your phone's GPS antenna has established a clear view of the open sky and your local emergency response center has the equipment to process location information. See "GPS Enabled" on page 118, and particularly "IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in Mind" on page 119 and "Making an Emergency Call" on page 120, for more information on the limitations of this feature. Because of the limitations of this feature, always provide your best knowledge of your location to the emergency response center when you make an emergency call. 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. Emergency calls cannot be placed while the keypad is locked. If you have not registered on the network, emergency calls cannot be placed while your SIM card is in your phone. If you are bringing your phone number to Nextel from your previous carrier, you may receive a temporary telephone number while your Nextel phone is being programmed with your permanent phone number. If you make a call to 911 and the call fails, the 911 emergency response center will not be able to call you back on your Nextel phone if in the meantime, your Nextel phone has been programmed with your permanent telephone number. If the call is disconnected before location and details have been provided, call 911 again and advise that you were disconnected. Section 2A. Making and Answering Calls 31

Making Calls
Section 2A. Making and Answering Calls
31
When you make an emergency call, your phone’s GPS
Enabled feature can help emergency service
personnel find you, if you are in a location where your
phone's GPS antenna has established a clear view of
the open sky and your local emergency response
center has the equipment to process location
information. See “GPS Enabled” on page 118, and
particularly “IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in Mind” on
page 119 and “Making an Emergency Call” on
page 120, for more information on the limitations of this
feature. Because of the limitations of this feature, always
provide your best knowledge of your location to the
emergency response center when you make an
emergency call.
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.
Emergency calls cannot be placed while the
keypad is locked.
If you have not registered on the network,
emergency calls cannot be placed while your
SIM card is in your phone.
If you are bringing your phone number to Nextel
from your previous carrier, you may receive a
temporary telephone number while your Nextel
phone is being programmed with your
permanent phone number. If you make a call to
911 and the call fails, the 911 emergency
response center will not be able to call you back
on your Nextel phone if in the meantime, your
Nextel phone has been programmed with your
permanent telephone number. If the call is
disconnected before location and details have
been provided, call 911 again and advise that you
were disconnected.
