In the Emergency function, the phone expects that
the other end presses the "5" key after the connec-
tion is established. This prevents a connection to an
answering machine or voice service being accepted
as a successful emergency call.
If at least one emergency number is entered in the
configuration and the emergency key is enabled,
the phone initiates an emergency call when the
emergency key is pressed for 2 seconds or so.
The phone then sounds an alarm tone and (if acti-
vated) sends an SMS with an individually configu-
rable text to the (up to 5) emergency number(s)
stored.
Next, the telephone will call the first of the saved
emergency numbers. If the call is accepted, the Er-
gophone requests the called party to press the "5"
key on the phone at the other end. If the called par-
ty presses this key, the connection stays up until
either you or the called party hangs up. If the called
party does not press the "5" key within 60 seconds,
your phone breaks the connection and calls the
next emergency number entered.
If the call is not accepted, the phone calls the next
emergency number stored. If a connection to a per-
son cannot be established on any of the emergency
numbers, the phone repeats up to three times in
succession all emergency numbers entered.
