Failed Wakeup Notification
A wakeup call rings 6 times at a guest’s telephone. If the wakeup call is not answered after 3 attempts (the attempts are spaced 5 minutes apart), the attendant is notified immediately and a record of the failed attempt is printed on the journal printer. A special extension number with an Automatic Message Waiting (AMW) lamp is assigned solely for the purpose of receiving and storing messages about failed wakeup calls. An appearance of this extension is administered on both the attendant console and on the backup telephones. The button is labeled FAILED
WAKEUP.

1. Press the FAILED WAKEUP button.
