Enhanced 911 (E911) Information

This phone features an embedded Global Positioning System (GPS) chip necessary for utilizing

E911 emergency location services where available.

When you place an emergency 911 call, the GPS feature of your phone seeks information to

calculate your approximate location. Depending on several variables, including availability and

access to satellite signals, it may take up to 30 seconds or more to determine and report your

approximate location.

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.

Receive Phone Calls

When you receive a phone call from a contact, the Incoming call screen appears and displays

the caller ID icon, name, and phone number of the calling party. When you receive a phone call

from someone who is not stored in Contacts, only the default caller ID icon and phone number

appear on the Incoming call screen.

Note:

If your phone is turned off, all calls automatically go to voicemail.
