Automatic Crash Notification System
Note: When you switch Emergency
EMERGENCY ASSISTANCE
Assistance on or off, the settings apply to
all paired mobile phones. If you switch
Emergency Assistance off and a previously
paired phone connects when you switch the
ignition on, either a voice message plays, a
display message or icon is shown or both.
WARNING: Unless the Emergency
Assistance setting is on prior to a
collision, the system does not attempt
to place an emergency call. This could
delay the response time, increasing the
risk of serious injury or death.
Note: Every mobile phone operates
differently. While Emergency Assistance
works with most mobile phones, some
mobile phones may experience difficulties
using this feature.
Note: In the case of an emergency, the
system, as a means of communication aid,
can help you contact specific rescue
departments of public emergency services.
The system does not deploy the rescue
operations. The local public emergency
service deploys specific rescue operations
according to the actual situation.
WARNING: For this feature to work,
your mobile phone must be
Bluetooth-enabled and compatible with
the system.
WARNING: Always place your
phone in a secure location in your vehicle
so it does not become a projectile or get
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to someone or
damage the phone which could prevent
Emergency Assistance from working
properly.
To make sure that Emergency Assistance
works correctly:
•
The system must have power and be
working correctly at the time of the
crash and during feature activation and
use.
Note: Not all accidents activate the system.
If an accident does trigger the system, it
initiates a call to the emergency services.
Do not wait for the system to initiate a call
if you are able to do so. Call emergency
services immediately to avoid a delayed
response time. If you do not hear the system
within five seconds of the accident, the
system could be non-functional.
If an accident results in an attempt to
deploy an airbag, excluding knee airbags
and rear inflatable seatbelts, or to shut off
the fuel pump, the system initiates a call
to the emergency services.
