Make emergency calls

You can make calls to emergency service numbers, even if you have locked the SIM card and/or the
Obsidian. Your service provider programs one or more emergency phone numbers, which you can call
under any circumstance.
NOTE:
If you have turned your phone connection off, for example, if you were flying on an airplane,
you need to turn it back on to make emergency calls. To turn the phone connection on, press Start, tap
Settings, tap Connections, tap Wireless Manager, and then tap Phone.
To dial an emergency number:
1.
Press Send.
2.
Use the keyboard to dial the local emergency number.
3.
Press Send to place the call.
NOTE:
Emergency numbers vary by country/region. Your Obsidian's preprogrammed emergency
number(s) might not work in all locations, and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to
network, environmental, or interference issues.
Make calls using speed dial
You can dial phone numbers quickly by assigning speed dial numbers. You can choose speed dial
entries from 2-99. The speed dial entry 1 is to set up and dial your voice mail.
NOTE:
The speed dial feature is available only for phone numbers stored in the contact list.
To create a speed dial shortcut:

2.
From your contacts list, tap a contact to open it.

On the Speed Dial screen, in the Location box, select a speed dial number, and then tap OK.
TIP:
You can also assign speed dial numbers to Web addresses and e-mail addresses that are stored
in the Contacts on your Obsidian.
