This service can only be contacted using the provided number exclusively on telephones registered to the RWTH telephone network.

Please have your address, building name, institution name, name and a call back number on hand so that you can leave accurate identifying information on a voicebox if no personnel is available immediately. Ensure access to the building - if necessary - and support the on-call service in localising the cause of the failure.
