Customizing Your Phone
Defining an Emergency Dial Plan
Public telephone networks in countries around the world have a single emergency
telephone number (emergency services number), that allows a caller to contact local
emergency services for assistance when required. The emergency telephone number
may differ from country to country. It is typically a three-digit number so that it can
be easily remembered and dialed quickly. Some countries have a different emergency
number for each of the different emergency services.
You can specify the digits to dial on the IP phone for contacting emergency services.
Once you specify the emergency number(s) on the phone, you can dial those numbers
directly on the dial pad when required and the phone automatically dials to those
emergency services.
The following table describes the default emergency numbers on the IP phones.
You can set the emergency dial plan using the Aastra Web UI.
Note:
Contact your local phone service provider for available emergency num-
bers in your area.
