Numbers on the KIPS System
Numbers are split into four parts. The first three numbers are the nation code. The next three are the area code. The following three numbers are the exchange. The last four numbers are the number.
This is how a standard KIPS number is written:[518](000)000-0000
Dialing on the KIPS System
If you are dialing a number with the same area code and nation code as the phone from which you are calling, you do not need to dial the area or nation code. If you are dialing a phone in a different area code, but the same nation code, you must press one, dial the area code, and then the rest of the number. To dial a number with a different nation code, you must dial 0, then the nation code, then 1, then the area code, then the rest of the number. If you are dialing a number with a nation code that is not 3 numbers long, you must press 0*. An operator will then ask the nation code you wish to call, and direct you on how to finish dialing the number.
Emergency Dialing
When dialing from a phone on the KIPS system, dialing 112 will connect to an emergency services operator closest to you. This operator has the ability to send police, fire, medical, and poison control services to you. Some nations also have aditional numbers. The operator can also find where you are, unless you are using an incompatable cell phone. Emergency centers are run by the areas in which they are located.
