Emergency Calls

The emergency services can be contacted in the UK

by dialling 999. You may also dial 112 which is

valid in any country that is a member of the

European community.

As the Freestyle 120 Plus is a mains powered

cordless telephone there are certain situations

where you may not be able to make an emergency

call:

• If there is severe radio interference.

• If the handset batteries fail.

• If there is a power cut and there are no back-up

batteries in the base unit.

If your Freestyle 120 Plus is connected to a PBX,

you may have to dial an access number before 999

to contact the emergency services. 

Some switchboards are not able to dial out during

a power failure.
