EMERGENCY DIALING
While all phones are equipped with 911 emergency
calling, this phone may or may not permit its location to be
approximated during a 911 call.
Availability of this feature depends on upgrades to the (a) wireless network and
(b) 911 calling system that are required to be installed by the local 911 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 911 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 phone for essential
communications (such as a medical or other emergency). Please see T-Mobile’s
Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy for additional service restrictions and
details.
CARING FOR YOUR PHONE
MAKING IT LAST
Your phone is a complex electronic device; think of it as a
mini-computer. Here are some hints that will help you extend
the life of your new phone.
Phones aren’t cheap, so keep yours in a safe place. Keep
the phone away from children who want to see if the phone
sinks or oats, and away from dogs that nd plastic-coated
products to be irresistible chew toys.
Water will damage your phone and accessories. Even a
small amount of water from a soda in your car cup-holder,
melting snowakes, tears of joy, squirt-gun crossre, or steam
from the kitchen or bathroom can damage your phone.
Use only batteries and accessories from the original
manufacturer of your phone. Non-approved accessories can
damage you or your phone and shorten the phone’s life. Hint:
If it’s being sold out of someone’s car trunk, walk away.
If your charger or any other accessory is damaged,
replace it or take it to a qualied service dealer. Do not at-
tempt to operate your phone charger if it has received a sharp
blow, been dropped, thrown from a speeding motorcycle, or is
otherwise damaged; doing so may damage your phone.

TIPS FOR SAFETY
Check with your doctor if you have a pacemaker or hearing
aid to ensure that cell phone usage is safe with your device.
If you have questions about the interaction of cellular radio
frequency and any other electronic equipment, ask the
manufacturer of the equipment if cell phone radio frequencies
will disrupt the equipment’s performance.
When you are driving, T-Mobile encourages you to use
your phone in a safe and sensible manner. Here are
a few tips:
nAssess road conditions before answering.
Your safety is more important than any call.
nPrepare your hands-free headset, if you have one,
or turn on your speakerphone option before you
start moving.
nIf your phone rings and you discover it’s in the
back seat, do NOT crawl over the seat to answer
it while driving.
nProgram frequently used numbers into your
speed dial for easy one-Select dialing.
nRemember that laws prohibiting or restricting the use
of a mobile phone while driving may apply in your
area.
