8.5 To activate the Emergency Call function:
1.Press and hold the button on the pendant or the SOS emergency button on the telephone for three seconds. The telephone will beep loudly for 15 seconds. (If during this time the emergency SOS button on the phone, or the button on the pendant is pressed for more than three seconds, the emergency call will be cancelled. If the key is not pressed, the telephone will dial out the emergency numbers automatically in speakerphone mode.
2.The telephone dials out the first emergency number (stored in the phone book emergency location 1), and then announces the emergency message continuously.
•If during 60 seconds the called party acknowledges the call by pressing 0 on their phone, the speakerphone will be activated for 3 minutes.
•If 0 is not pressed within 60 seconds, the TP170WP will terminate the call, then after a further 30 seconds dial the next emergency number automatically in speakerphone mode.
WARNING
1.If NO emergency numbers have been programmed, the telephone will not dial anything. It will just beep loudly for 15 seconds when the SOS button on the phone or the button on the pendant is pressed.
2.The pendant must be within the range of the telephone to activate the emergency feature. You should check that there are no structural obstacles, heavy concrete walls between the pendant and the telephone.
3.When the button on the pendant is pressed, the red light (LED) will light up for as long as the key is pressed. If the led does not light up it is necessary to replace the battery.
4.To cancel the emergency feature, press and hold the SOS button on the telephone or the pendant for more than three seconds.
5.The emergency feature will automatically stop when all the emergency numbers have been dialled twice or if the receiver presses 1 and 2 after the 0 key. (The reason for interrupting the call after 3 minutes is for safety in case a receiving party presses 0 but for any reason is unable to receive the message, in case of mobile phone drop out for example).
Note: The emergency feature will automatically stop when all the emergency numbers have been dialed or if the receiving party has pressed 0. When the receiver presses 1 and 2 after the 0 key, the unit will stay in speaker mode or you can hang up the receiver.
6.The receiving party must use a tone dialing phone, (standard feature on most telephones) to press “0”.
