memo

◎ In this section, the police (110), fire station (119)

and regional coast guard headquarters (118)
are collectively referred to as the emergency call
receiving agency.

◎ This feature may not yet be available at some

emergency call receiving agencies.

◎ If you add '184' before the emergency call number

110/119/118, the emergency call receiving agency
will not be notified of your location and phone
number.

◎ In places where signal reception from GPS satellites

or a base station is relatively poor, such as in an
underground mall, inside a building or behind a tall
building, the emergency call receiving agency may
be notified of some other place different from your
actual location.

◎ When GPS cannot be used to notify of your location,

base station signal is used instead.

◎ The Emergency call location notification service is

available in Japan only. It cannot be used outside of
Japan.

◎ When making an emergency call to the police, fire

station or regional coast guard headquarters, always
confirm where you are, and tell them your exact
location on the phone. Note that depending on the
area where you are calling, your call may not be
connected to the agency having jurisdiction over that
area.

◎ If the emergency call receiving agency determines

that human lives and health are in danger, they will
be able to acquire the caller's location information
during the call or within a certain period of time after
the call.
