Hello Hikw-Qedxw
I have your answer. First, don't worry. I thought the same thing about my phone. If you haven't set this up, then the default is OFF.
2nd, If you hit the power button 5 times, the SOS message goes to the person you have set up to receive the SOS, NOT the 911 emergency police folks.
I know this for a fact because I set it all up and the SOS would go to my brother and he got VERY tired of getting my SOS message because I accidentally pushed the power button 5 times in a row. It would send a short voice message, a photo and a text...every time. He got pissed so I turned it off.
¡Éxitos!
P.S. I just went and looked at the SOS settings and I've given you bad info. It's completely different from when I was erroneously sending SOS messages to my 5 family members! It also tried calling 911!
I am, however, leaving this info up since someone may be able to gain something from it.
