IMPORTANT! Dialing 911 in an Emergency

To reach help as quickly as possible in an emergency, all 1-LineCapTel calls placed to 911 connect directly to Emergency 911 Services.

911 calls are not routed through the captioning service. This means:

•Emergency 911 calls are not captioned in the same manner as regular CapTel calls.

•Emergency 911 calls are treated as VCO calls* during which the 911 call-taker can hear everything you say, and then types his/her response which appears on the CapTel display screen.

•You speak directly into the handset, as you would with any other CapTel call. The 911 call-taker will hear everything you say. You may not be able to hear the call-taker, but he/she can

type instructions to you, which will appear on the CapTel display screen.

•Watch the CapTel display screen for information.

Please familiarize yourself with Dialing 911 in an Emergency on page 29. (For more information on dialling 911 with 2-Line Mode, see page 38).

*VCO stands for “Voice Carry Over”, a service common in relay in which callers speak for themselves and read typed responses.
