911 Or Other Emergency Calls
Public safety officials advise that when
making 911 or other emergency calls, you
should always be prepared to provide your
location information. Unlike traditional wireline
phones, depending on a number of factors (for
example, whether your Device is GPS-enabled,
where you are, whether local emergency
service providers have upgraded their
equipment, etc.), 911 operators may not know
your phone number, your location, or the
location of your Device. In certain
circumstances, an emergency call may be
routed to a state patrol dispatcher or alternative
location set by local emergency service
providers. Enhanced 911 service (“E911”)—
where enabled by local emergency authorities—
uses GPS technology to provide location
information. Even when available, however,
E911 does not always provide accurate location
information. If your Device is indoors or for
some other reason cannot acquire a satellite
signal, you may not be located. Some Devices
have a safety feature that prevents use of the
keypad after dialing 911—you should follow
voice prompts when interacting with
emergency service providers employing
