Making an emergency call

About this task
If your administrator configured emergency calling for your phone, the Phone screen displays an
Emerg softkey to immediately connect you with a preset emergency services number.
Note:
You can make an emergency call when your phone is logged out only if your administrator
configured this feature for you. You can also make an emergency call when you lock your
phone. The emergency call feature is available in IP Office only when you are logged in to
your phone. Also, in IP Office environment, Emerg softkey is not available. You must manually
dial the emergency number.
Important:
During phone failover, when the phone switches between system servers due to a system
failure, the Emerg softkey might not be available until your phone connects to an alternate
server. This process might take a few seconds.
Procedure
1. On the Phone screen, press Emerg.
2. Press Yes when the phone displays a prompt.
3. To end the emergency call, press End Call.
