How do you put your iPhone XR into recovery mode if you enacted the emergency mode? YOu have to press and hold the side button and one of the up/down buttons to Start the recovery mode. But when in the emergency mode when you do this, eventually the emergency siren goes off. What is my next step?

This resource provides great information and useful steps when looking to use Emergency SOS on your iPhone. When using Emergency SOS on a iPhone XR, this would involve pressing and holding the side button and one of the Volume buttons until the Emergency SOS slider appears. These steps differ from placing your iPhone XR into recovery mode as that button sequence would end with holding the side button alone.
