Your vehicle has an on-board assistance feature
that is designed to provide support in case of an
accident and/or emergency. This feature is
automatically activated by air bag intervention, or
can be activated manually by pushing the button
located on the base of the rear view mirror.
NOTE:
SOS Emergency Call will only work with an
enabled network operator. SOS Emergency Call Button
The SOS Emergency Call system automatically
forwards a call to emergency services in the event
of an accident with air bag intervention providing
that the ignition device is in RUN position and the
air bags are working. When the connection
between the vehicle and a public safety operator
is made, your vehicle will automatically transmit
location and vehicle information to the
emergency service operator.
Only a public safety operator can remotely end
the SOS Emergency Call and, if necessary, call the
vehicle back through the Emergency Call system.
Once the call has ended, you can still call the
emergency service operator to indicate additional
information by pushing the button again.
To Use SOS Emergency Call
Push and hold the SOS Emergency Call button for
a few seconds. The LED, located next to the SOS
button, will blink once and then stay on indicating
a call has been placed.
CAUTION!
Prolonged use of the Hazard Warning Flashers
