911 Assist
(If Equipped) WARNINGS
Unless the 911 Assist setting is set
on before a crash, the system will
not dial for help, which could delay
response time, potentially increasing the
risk of serious injury or death after a crash. Do not wait for 911 Assist to make an
emergency call if you can do it
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 five seconds
of the crash, the system or phone may be
damaged or non-functional. Always place your phone in a secure
location in your vehicle so it does
not become a projectile or damaged in a
crash. Failure to do so may cause serious
injury to someone or damage the phone,
which could prevent 911 Assist from
working properly. Note:
The SYNC 911 Assist feature must
be set on prior to the incident.
Note: Before setting this feature on, make
sure that you read the 911 Assist Privacy
Notice later in this section for important
information.
Note: If any user turns 911 Assist on or off,
that setting applies for all paired phones.
If 911 Assist is turned off, either a voice
message plays or a display message (or
icon) comes on (or both) when your vehicle
is started after a previously paired phone
connects.
Note: Every phone operates differently.
While SYNC 911 Assist works with most
cellular phones, some may have trouble
using this feature.
If a crash deploys an airbag (excludes
knee airbags and rear inflatable safety
belts [if equipped]) or activates the fuel
pump shut-off, your SYNC-equipped
vehicle may be able to contact emergency
services by dialing 911 through a paired
and connected Bluetooth-enabled phone.
You can learn more about the 911 Assist
feature, visit www.SYNCMyRide.com,
www.SYNCMyRide.ca or
www.syncmaroute.ca.

Supplementary Restraints System
(page 39). Important information regarding
airbag deployment is in this chapter.
