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.

products to be irresistible chew toys.
Water will damage your phone and
accessories—even a small amount such as
water droplets from a soda in your car
cup-holder, melting snowakes, tears of joy,
squirt-gun crossre or steam from hot water

the original manufacturer of your phone.
Non-approved accessories can cause
damage to you or your phone and shorten
the phone’s life. Hint: If it’s being sold out of
