TTY Use With Handset

A TTY (also known as a TDD or Text Telephone), is a telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing, or w ho have speech or language disabilities, to communic at e by telephone.

Your phone is compatible with selected TTY devices. Please check with the manufacturer of your TTY devi ce to ensure that it supports digital wireless transmission. Your phone and TTY device will connect via a special cable that plugs into your phone's headset jack. If this cable was not provided with your TTY device, contact your TTY device manufacturer to purchase the connector cable.

Phone Basics 23

Note: Not all service providers support T TY. Consult you r service prov ider for more

information.

To turn TTY Mode on or off:

press to save and exit.

Note: In TTY Mode when your headset is plugged in, your phone will display the TTY access icon. If TTY mode is enabled, the headset cannot be used.

IMPORTANT 911 Emergency Calling: We recommend that TTY users make emergency calls by other means, including Tel eco mmunications Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and land line communications. Wireless TTY calls to 911 may be corrupted when received by public safety answering points (PSAPs) rendering some communications unintelligible. The problem encountered appears related to TTY equipment or software used by PSAPs. The wireless industry and PSAP community are currently working to resolve this.
