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.

NOTE:

If the SOS - Emergency Call button is acciden-
tally pushed, there is a 10 second delay before
the call is placed. The system will issue a
verbal alert that a call is about to be made. To
cancel the call connection, push the SOS -
Emergency Call button again.
Once a connection between the vehicle and an
emergency service operator is made, the SOS
- Emergency Call system will transmit the
following important vehicle information to the
operator:
Indication that the occupant placed an SOS
- Emergency Call.
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
The last known GPS coordinates of the
vehicle.
You will then be able to speak with the emer -
gency service operator to determine if addi -
tional help is needed.

other audio sources, which will be muted. If
you have a phone connected via Bluetooth, it
is disconnected and reconnected at the end of
the SOS - Emergency Call. Voice prompts will
guide you during the SOS - Emergency Call. If a connection is made between an emergency
service operator and your vehicle, emergency
service operators may record conversations
and sounds within your vehicle once a connec
-
tion is made, and by using the service you
consent to having this information shared.
