# Regionality

> Match the CAD's wording, timezone, emergency numbers, currency, and speed units to your region.

***

## What is Regionality?

Regional Words match the CAD's wording to your region. Officers, dispatchers and civilians all see your terms, so names in these docs (911, 10-Codes, Penal Code, DMV, \$) may look different on your server.

Open **Customization** → **Regionality** in the CAD admin panel. Changes are kept as a draft until you click **Save Changes** (`Ctrl` + `S`).

## Setting Your Region

<Steps>
  <Step title="Apply a preset">
    Pick your country under **Apply Preset** to fill most fields in one go.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check the fields">
    Tweak anything you like. An empty field goes back to its default. Presets don't change the timezone or non-emergency number, so set those yourself.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save">
    Click **Save Changes**. Everyone sees the new terms straight away.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Some presets fill an emergency number longer than 6 characters, so shorten it before saving.
