Automatic Emergency
Call (Mandown Call)
The handset can trigger an auto-
matic emergency call (“Man Down
Call”). Prerequisite is that you have
programmed an emergency call
number (see page 65) and the func-
tion “Man Down Call” is on (see
page 65).
When the function “Man Down Call”
is activated then an integrated mer-
cury-free position sensor continu-
ally determines the inclination angle
of the handset. Normally the hand-
set is carried almost vertically, for in-
stance using the belt clip directly
fastened to the body. The position
measurement occurs every five sec-
onds and checks whether the device
is still in the vertical position. If the
device is more than 60 degrees away
from the vertical position, then at
the latest after ten seconds an alarm
is triggered.
If the function “Silent Alarm” is
switched on (see page 65) then the
programmed emergency call
number is immediately dialled. If the
function “Silent Alarm” is switched
off then a warning tone is sounded
for 30 seconds. If the warning tone is
not switched off then after the ex-
piry of this time limit the emergency
call number is dialled. To switch off
the warning tone (and with it the
deactivation of the mandown call)
press the softkey
Esc .
Please note: A change in the posi-
tion of the handset is not sufficient
to deactivate the mandown call. The
position alarm is only triggered if
the device is switched on and in the
idle state (that is, for example, not
while scrolling through the menus).
Accepting an
Appointment Call
You can save appointments with the
Appointments menu item in the
Messages menu (see “Phone set-
tings” Menu starting on page 62).
At the appropriate time, the ap-
pointment number appears in the
display and (if entered) the appoint-
ment reason.
To view the appointment message
press the
Menu softkey and confirm
the appointment call with
OK .
If you are in conversation during an
appointment call, you will hear a
special tone and the display indi-
cates the appointment number.
Baby Call
You can save an internal or external
call number in the menu item Baby
call of the “Protection” menu (see
“Protection” Menu starting on
page 67). If the “Baby call” function
has been activated and you press the
A key in the idle state, this pro-
