Making an emergency call
Wireless phones, including IsatPhone Pro, operate
using radio signals, wireless networks, landline
networks, and user-programmed functions. Because
of this, connections in all conditions cannot be
guaranteed. You should never rely solely on any
wireless device for essential communications like
medical emergencies. Emergency calling requirements
for satellite phones vary from country to country.
Always check your emergency contact numbers
and ensure they are stored on your phone before
travelling. Please contact your service provider for
specific country information.
To make an emergency call in the US, dial 911 or 112.
Your call will be put through to a call centre which will
connect you to the appropriate emergency service.
Alternatively, select Menu > Contacts > Emergency
numbers. An emergency call is free of charge. Prepay
users do not need a positive balance to make an
emergency call. Dialling 911 or 112 overides all
security locks and bars on your phone.
For details on emergency calling in the rest of the
world, please contact your service provider.
Using the volume control
The two volume keys on the side of the phone adjust
the call volume.
Muting a call
Select Options > Mute while on a call. To cancel,
select Options > Unmute.
Using loudspeaker
Select Loudspeaker at any time during a call.
calling handsfree
You can also use your phone in handsfree mode.
Place the phone on its side with the antenna pointing
upwards and use loudspeaker or a handsfree headset.
Loudspeaker can be activated at any time during the
call. To use the wired handsfree headset, connect it
to the audio port at the base of the phone, under
the protective cover. To use a Bluetooth headset,
see page 42 for more information.
