Emergency call
Your telephone provides you with an emergency call function which
can be activated by pressing the SOS key at the backside of your
phone for more than 2 seconds.
In case in your configuration is at least one emergency call number
and the emergency call key has been activated the telephone will
make a emergency call when pressing the SOS key for at least 2
seconds (also with activated key lock without confirmation).
The phone will sound an alert signal and sends an SMS with an indi-
vidually defined help text to (up to five) configured emergency phone
number(s).
Then the phone will call the first configured emergency phone num-
ber. In case the call is taken the phone automatically goes to hands
free mode. If the called party hangs up the telephone dials the next
emergency phone number. To exit the emergency call function the
hang-up key must be pressed and held for some time.
If the call is not being taken the phone will call the next emergency
call number configured. In case the call is not taken with any of the
emergency phone numbers (or the emergency function is not being
terminated after a call has been taken), the phone will repeat calling
all configured emergency call numbers three times.
While the phone is calling an emergency phone number the display
will show the phone number. The call is being made in hands free
mode. So you can hear whether or not the called party takes the call.
During SMS transmission and during the dialling attempts the phone
will all the time sound the alert signal. Once the connection has been
set up or it rings at the emergency phone number or the called party
has taken the call the alert signal will stop but it will start again with
every new dialling attempt.
