locating information from the vehicle and can send a detailed alert to the
appropriate emergency services. In countries in which the team is not
operational, or when the locating service has been expressly declined,
the call is dealt with directly by the emergency services (112) without the
vehicle location.

If an impact is detected by the airbag ECU, and independently
of the deployment of any airbags, an emergency call is made
automatically.

Consult a CITROËN dealer.

confi guration is possible in the offi cial national language of your choice.
If you benefi t from the CITROËN eTouch offer, you also have available
additional services in your MyCITROEN personal space, via the CITROËN
Internet website www.citroen.co.uk.
