WARNING
■When the Emergency Call may
not be made
●It may not be possible to make
Emergency Calls in any of the fol-
lowing situations. In such cases,
report to emergen cy services pro- vider (112 system etc.) by other
means such as nearby public
phones.
• Even when the vehicle is in the cel -
lular phone service area, it may be
difficult to connec t to the eCall con- trol center if the reception is poor or
the line is busy. In such cases,
even though the system attempts to connect to the eCall control center,
you may not be able to connect to
the eCall control center to make Emergency Calls and contact emer -
gency services.
• When the vehicle is out of the cellu -
lar phone service area, the Emer -
gency Calls cannot be made.
• When any related equipment (such
as the “SOS” button panel, indicator lights, microphone, speaker, DCM,
antenna, or any wires connecting
the equipment) is malfunctioning, damaged or broken, the Emer -
gency Call cannot be made.
• During an Emergency Call, the sys -
tem makes repeated attempts to
connect to the eCall control center. However, if it cannot connect to the
eCall control center due to poor
radio wave reception, the system may not be able to connect to the
cellular network and the call may
finish without connecting. The red indicator light will blink for approxi -
mately 30 seconds to indicate this
disconnection.
●If the 12-volt battery’s voltage decreases or there is a disconnec -
tion, the system may not be able to
connect to the eCa ll control center.
■When the Emergency Call sys-
tem is replaced with a new one
The Emergency Call system should
be registered. Contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■For your safety
●Please drive safely.
The function of t his system is to
assist you in making the Emer - gency Call in case of accidents
such as traffic a ccidents or sudden
medical emergenc ies, and it does not protect the driver or passengers
in any way. Please drive safely and
fasten your seatbelts at all times for your safety.
●In case of an emergency, make lives the top priority.
●If you smell anything burning or other unusual smells, leave the
vehicle and evacuate to a safe area
immediately.
●If the airbags dep loy when the sys-
tem is operating normally, the sys- tem makes emerge ncy call. The
system also makes emergency call
when the vehicle is struck from the rear or rolls over , even if the air-
bags do not deploy.
●For safety, do not make the Emer -
gency Call while driving.
Making calls during driving may cause mishandling of the steering
wheel, which may lead to unex -
pected accidents.
Stop the vehicle and confirm the safety of your su rroundings before
making the Emergency Call.
