WARNING:Do not wait for 911 Assist to initiate an emergency
call if you are capable yourself. Dial emergency services
immediately to avoid delayed response time, which could increase the
risk of serious injury or death after a crash. If you do not hear 911
Assist within 5 seconds after the crash, the system or phone may be
damaged or non-functional.
The cell phone or 911 Assist hardware may become damaged in a
crash, the vehicle may lose battery power, or the cell phone may
be thrown from the vehicle, which could prevent operation.
Additionally, not all crashes deploy an airbag or activate the fuel
pump shut-off, which are the criteria to initiate 911 Assist.
WARNING: Always place cell phone in a secure location to
prevent it from becoming a projectile or becoming damaged in
the event of a collision. Failure to do so may cause serious injury or
damage the phone which could prevent 911 Assist from functioning
properly.
In the event of a crash involving the deployment of an airbag or the
activation of the fuel pump shut-off, SYNC is designed to assist
occupants in attempting to contact emergency services by dialing 911
through the occupant’s paired and connected Bluetoothenabled cellular
phone. In the event that a connected cellular phone is damaged or loses
connection to SYNC, SYNC will search for and connect to any available,
previously paired cell phone and continue to place the call to 911. Before
initiating the call, SYNC provides a 10 second window that allows the
driver or passenger to decide whether to cancel the call by pressing and
holding
on the steering wheel controls or on the audio system.
Before initiating the 911 call for the occupants, SYNC will say the
following or a similar message:
“A crash has occurred. SYNC will attempt to place a call to 911. To
cancel, press and hold the phone button.”
If the call is not cancelled and a successful call is made, a pre-recorded
message will be played for the 911 operator and then the occupant(s) in
the vehicle will be able to communicate with the 911 operator. The
pre-recorded message will be similar to the following example:
“A vehicle crash has been detected that has deployed an airbag or
activated the fuel pump shut-off in a SYNC equipped vehicle. Please send
assistance. You are now connected with the vehicle occupants.”
