warning tone.
After an additional five minutes or so, the phone sounds a
warning tone three times and then turns off.

TTY Use With Service
A TTY (teletypewriter, also known as a TDD or Text Telephone) is a
telecommunications device that allows people who are deaf, hard
of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities, to
communicate by telephone.

Your phone is compatible with select TTY devices. Please check
with the manufacturer of your TTY device 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.

WARNING
911 Emergency Calling
Boost recommends that TTY users make emergency
calls by other means, including Telecommunications
Relay Services (TRS), analog cellular, and landline
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. This
matter has been brought to the attention of the FCC, and
the wireless industry and the PSAP community are
currently working to resolve this.
