How does SOS emergency call work? • To make an emergency call, press and hold AUDIO ASSIST/SOS on the right side of the cordless handset for three seconds. The telephone base announces "Emergency mode is activated". The handset then pages all system devices. All devices ring an alert tone and the handset screen shows SOS mode for 20 seconds. After that, the telephone then calls the preset SOS numbers in sequence until the call is answered. -- The telephone enables internal SOS alert by default. When this feature is enabled, the telephone pages all system devices before calling the preset SOS numbers. -- If you disable internal SOS alert (see page 12), the telephone calls the preset SOS numbers directly when you press and hold AUDIO ASSIST/ SOS on the cordless handset. • When the SOS call to the preset external number is answered, the call receiver hears an SOS message. You can record your own message or use the default message (see page 10). • The SOS message played by the telephone asks the SOS call receiver to respond by pressing a number key. After the call receiver presses a number key, you can then talk to the call receiver. • When the SOS emergency call is answered by answering machine or voicemail, the call will be terminated after 60 seconds. The telephone then dials the next SOS number in sequence. • When none of the preset SOS numbers answer, the telephone re-calls the preset SOS numbers in sequence until the call is answered. The telephone will call all the preset SOS numbers for 3 times before aborting the operation when none of the calls are answered. Set SOS emergency number 1.
