You still have to call 1-1-2 (Danish 9-1-1) yourself, through i think the machine has a speaker and mentions it.

  I guess everybody knows this, but 112 is the emergency telephone number in a lot more countries than "just" Denmark [1]. According to Wikipedia, it even works in the US if dialed from a cell phone, by being forwarded to 911 by the network. That I didn't know, since the "cultural presence" of 911 is pretty big even over here in Sweden.

    In some european countries, 911 calls are forwarded to 112 for this exact reason, the cultural presence of 911

      It's part of mobile phone standards to accept several emergency numbers (at least 112 and 911, I think 999 as well), and translate to the local number. That's not always doable with landlines as it might conflict with a longer number, and some countries have short numbers that might conflict as well, but I think that's rare too.
