Emergency Call; Making An Emergency Call - Avaya J159 Manual

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:
• Login screen
• Phone screen
• Lock screen
In the 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 soft key.
Using the Emerg soft key, 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 soft key is unavailable.
• The Emerg soft key is available, but you want to dial an emergency number that is not set by
the system administrator.
In the IP Office environment, the Emerg soft key is unavailable. You must dial the emergency
number by using the dial pad.
For more information on IP Office, see IP Office documents in https://support.avaya.com/.
