[. . . ] Programming/testing of emergency numbers If this product has memory dialing locations, you may choose to store police, fire department and emergency medical service telephone numbers in these locations. We recommend that you also write the telephone number on the directory card, so that you can still dial the emergency number manually if the memory dialing feature doesn't work. This feature is provided only as a convenience, and the manufacturer assumes no responsibility for customer reliance upon the memory feature. Testing the emergency telephone numbers you have stored is not recommended. [. . . ]
