Process of the SOS function.

Your handset is equipped with four additional keys (direct dial keys [A] to [D]). The direct dial key [A] can be assigned a special emergency function ("emergency key"). You can use this to request emergency assistance from friends or neighbours.

Note:
- The emergency function must be set up first.
- Once the emergency function has been activated, the emergency key on the handset and the base is permanently illuminated.

Process
You can trigger the emergency call on the handset by pressing the direct dial key [A].

The person receiving your emergency call will hear the emergency call message:
• "This is an emergency call."
• "To accept the call please press key 5."
If the person receiving the call presses the key 5, you can now speak to one another.

If the person receiving the call does not accept the call, the emergency function automatically
dials the next emergency number after 60 seconds (if several numbers have been saved). The emergency function also automatically switches to the next emergency number after 60 seconds in the following situations:
• The answer machine of the emergency number selected is activated
• The emergency number is busy
• The telephone of the person receiving the emergency call is not set to "tone dialling".

This process is repeated a maximum of 5 times. If none of the calls are accepted, the emergency function is ended with an error tone.


Note:
The emergency key on the handset flashes throughout the entire process. The message "Sending emergency call" is shown in the Display.
