SAFETY TIPS
Consider device compatibility
If you have a pacemaker or a hearing aid,
check with your doctor to make sure it’s
safe for you to use a cell phone. In some
cases, cellular radio frequencies can
disrupt the performance of other electronic
equipment. If you have questions about the
interaction between your phone and any
other piece of electronic equipment, ask the
equipment manufacturer.
Drive safely
T-Mobile encourages you to use your phone
in a safe and sensible manner while driving.
Here are a few safety tips:
n
Assess road conditions before
answering your phone. Your safety
is more important than any call.
n
Prepare your hands-free headset,
if you have one, or turn on your
speakerphone, before you
start moving.
n Pre-program frequently used
numbers into your phone for
easy, one-touch dialing.
n Keep your phone close. If it rings
and you discover it’s in the back
seat, do NOT crawl over the seat
to answer it while driving.
n Remember that laws prohibiting or
restricting the use of a cell phone
while driving may apply in your area.
EMERGENCY DIALING
Although all phones are equipped with 9-1-1
emergency calling capabilities, this phone
may or may not permit its location to be
approximated during a 9-1-1 call.*
*Availability of this feature depends on upgrades to the
(a) wireless network and (b) 9-1-1 calling system that
are required to be installed by the local 9-1-1 response
agency or public safety answering point (PSAP); these
upgrades may not be available everywhere within our
wireless coverage area or your roaming area. This
approximation of the phone’s location and the transmittal
of location information are subject to emergency situations,
transmission limits, network problems/limitations,
interconnecting carrier problems, your phone, buildings/
tunnels, signal strength and atmospheric/topographical
conditions, and may be curtailed, interrupted, dropped, or
refused. The phone’s approximate location is transmitted
to the local 9-1-1 response agency or PSAP while the call
is in progress; this approximation is intended solely to
aid the PSAP in dispatching emergency assistance or to
limit the search area for emergency services personnel.
You should not rely solely on a mobile phone for essential
communications (such as a medical or other emergency).
