Section 14: Health and Safety Information 143
Emergency Calls
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include
below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas
(such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or
metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and landline networks as
well as user-programmed functions, which cannot guarantee connection in all conditions. Therefore,
you should never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential communications (medical emergencies,
for example).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be switched on and in a service area with
adequate signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when
certain network services and/or phone 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. Key in the emergency number for your present location (for example, 911 or other official
emergency number). Emergency numbers vary by location.
3. Press .
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example), you may first need to deactivate those features
before you can make an emergency call. Consult this document 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 phone 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.
Restricting Children's access to your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with it because they could hurt themselves
and others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your phone bill.
