labeled “SOS”, then pressing the button (for longer than
2 seconds) located under the cover. Once the emergency
call is in progress, the indicator
lamp in the “SOS”
button will begin to f lash. All information relevant to the
emergency, such as the location of the vehicle
(determined by the GPS satellite location system),
vehicle model, identification number and color are
generated.
A voice connection between the Response Center and
the occupants of the vehicle will be established
automatically soon after the emergency call has been
initiated. The Response Center will attempt
to determine more precisely the nature of the accident
provided they can speak to an occupant of the vehicle.
