Making a call
The communicator can make and receive calls
only when:
• The phone interface is switched on.
• The communicator has a valid SIM card fitted.
• The communicator is located in the service
area of the cellular network ( is shown).
Note: Emergency calls to the international
emergency number 112 can usually be
made without the SIM card. Check with
your network operator. For more informa-
tion about making emergency calls, see
chapter 16 "Important safety information:
Emergency calls" on page 16-2.
