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.
In-Call Options
Once you initiate a call, you will see these onscreen
options:
ⅷ Add call to initiate a 3-way call.
ⅷ End to end the call.
ⅷ Dialpad to display the dialpad.
ⅷ Bluetooth (Only available when a Bluetooth headset
is connected to your phone) to conduct the call via
the Bluetooth headset for hands-free conversation.
(For details about pairing the phone with a Bluetooth
headset, see “Pairing Bluetooth Devices” on
page 112.)
ⅷ Mute to mute the microphone during a call. The Mute
button lights up and is displayed on the Status
Bar to indicate the microphone is muted. To unmute
the microphone, tap
Mute again.
ⅷ Speaker to turn the speakerphone on or off. The
Speaker button lights up and is displayed on the
Status Bar to indicate that the speakerphone is on.
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.
Note: When using the Bluetooth headset during a call, the
Ongoing Call notification icon is blue in the Status bar.
WARNING: Because of higher volume levels, do not place
the device near your ear while using the
speakerphone.
