Emergency call
Emergency calling is used to connect to a preset emergency services number. The emergency
service number is configured by the administrator.
You can make an emergency call from the following screens:
• Status screen
• Lock screen
In IP Office environment, you can make an emergency call only when you are logged in to your
phone.
If your system administrator configures emergency calling for your phone, the Phone screen
displays the Emerg softkey. Otherwise, the Recents softkey replaces the Emerg softkey. Using
the Emerg softkey, you can dial only the number that is given the highest priority by the system
administrator. Alternatively, you can dial the emergency numbers by using the dial pad in the
following cases:
• The Emerg softkey is unavailable.
• The Emerg softkey is available. You want to call an emergency number that is not the
highest priority number set by the system administrator.
In an IP Office environment, the Emerg softkey is not available. You must dial the emergency
number by using the dial pad.
