112 is an emergency number. Depending upon your location, you will be routed to an emergency dispatch center. I believe it will be the one closest to the area code of your phone's number, however, it may be relative to whichever tower the phone accesses the emergency service. It is basically just like dialing 911. A phone with a GPS feature will turn it on and allow tracking the phone's general area by the emergency service. However, just like making a phone call, you must have battery life and signal for it to work.
