Emergency calls
Your service provider programs one or
more emergency phone numbers that
you can call under any circumstances,
even when your phone is locked or the
SIM card is not inserted.
Note: Emergency numbers vary by country.
Your phone’s preprogrammed emergency
number(s) may not work in all locations, and
sometimes an emergency call cannot be
placed due to network, environmental, or
interference issues.
Your phone supports emergency calling.
Emergency phone calls can be made
even when your SIM card is blocked or
not in your phone.
Dial 911 or your local emergency
number to be connected to an
emergency response center. If you are
on an active call, you must end it before
making an emergency call.
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. 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.
Note: Emergency calls cannot be placed
while the keypad is locked.
Note: If you have not registered on the
network, emergency calls cannot be placed
while your SIM card is in your phone.
International calls
Call Boost Customer Care to activate
international dialing. Press and hold 0 to
insert your local international access
code (indicated by +). Then, press the
keypad keys to dial the country code
and phone number.
