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.”

Note:Failure to cancel the call as described above will result in SYNC
dialing 911.
Note: When you are connected to the 911 operator, be prepared to
provide your name, phone number and location immediately, because not
all 911 systems are capable of receiving this information electronically.
The following steps are required for the 911 Assist feature to perform
properly:
• SYNC is on and functioning properly at the time of the incident and
throughout feature activation and use.
• SYNC 911 Assist feature is set to ON prior to the incident.
• ABluetooth enabled cellular phone is paired and connected to SYNC.
• A connected Bluetoothenabled cellular phone has the ability to make
an outgoing call at the time of the incident.
• The vehicle is located in the U.S. or Canada or in a territory in which
911 is the emergency number.
WARNING: Unless 911 Assist is previously configured to ON
prior to a crash, 911 Assist will not dial for help during an
emergency, which could delay response time, increasing the risk of
serious injury or death after a crash.
The 911 Assist feature is initially set to OFF. The connected phone must
be set as the primary phone in order to change the setting. To access the
setting:
1. Press
to enter PHONE MENU.
2. Scroll repeatedly until 911 ASSIST appears in the radio display.
3. Press OK to confirm and enter the 911 ASSIST menu.
Note: Before activating, 911 Assist will disclose to emergency
services that the vehicle has been in a crash involving the
deployment of an airbag or the activation of the fuel pump
shut-off and 911 Assist will be active for any paired and
connected cell phone. If you do not want to disclose this
information, do not activate the feature.
4. Press
orto toggle between ON/OFF.
5. Press OK when the desired option appears in the radio display. SET
ON or SET OFF will appear in the radio display as a confirmation.
