• Always tell the emergency responder your location to the
best of your ability; and
• Remain on the mobile device for as long as the emergency
responder instructs you.
Navigation
Maps, directions, and other navigation data may
contain inaccurate or incomplete data, and
circumstances can and do change over time. In some
areas, complete information may not be available.
Therefore, you should always visually confirm that the
navigational instructions are consistent with what you
see before following them. All users should pay
attention to road conditions, closures, traffic, and all
other factors that may impact safe driving or walking.
Always obey posted road signs.
Emergency Calls
This mobile device, like any wireless mobile device,
operates using radio signals, wireless and landline
networks, as well as user-programmed functions,
which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions,
areas, or circumstances. Therefore, you should never
rely solely on any wireless mobile device for essential
communications (medical emergencies, for example).
Before traveling in remote or underdeveloped areas,
plan an alternate method of contacting emergency
services personnel. Remember, to make or receive
any calls, the mobile device must be switched on and
in a service area with adequate signal strength.
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless
mobile device networks or when certain network
services and/or mobile device features are in use.
Check with local service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. From the Home screen, tap .
3. Enter the emergency number for your present
location (for example, 911 or other official
emergency number), then tap .
Emergency numbers vary by location.
If certain features are in use (call blocking, for
example), you may first need to deactivate those
features before you can make an emergency call.
Consult your User Manual 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 mobile
device 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.
