Nokia 8850 Cell Phone User Manual


 
[ 108 ]
Remember, to make or receive any calls, the phone must be switched on
and be used in a service area that has adequate signal strength. Emergency
calls might 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.
Always make sure that your phone is properly charged before attempting
any emergency calls. If you allow your battery to become empty, you will
be unable to receive or make calls, including emergency calls. You must
then wait a few minutes after the charging begins to place any emergency
calls.

If certain features are in use (Keyguard, fixed dialing, restrict calls, and so
on), you might first need to turn those features off 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 of the necessary
information as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone
might be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident—
do not terminate the call until given permission to do so.
