911 Assist™ (if equipped)
For 911 Assist™ to function properly, the vehicle must have
battery power after the crash, the cell phone must be previously
paired, connected to SYNC, and continue to function properly
with the ability to make and maintain a 911 call initiated by
SYNC, and the 911 Assist™ feature must be previously enabled
(set to ON).
WARNING:Do not wait for 911 Assist™ to initiate an
emergency call if you are capable 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 5 seconds after the crash, the system or
phone may be damaged or non-functional.
The cell phone or 911 Assist™ hardware may become damaged in
a crash, the vehicle may lose battery power, or the cell phone may
be thrown from the vehicle, which could prevent operation.
Additionally, every cell phone operates differently. While SYNC
911 Assist™ works with most cell phones, some phones may have
trouble using this feature. Finally, not all crashes deploy an
airbag or, in certain vehicles, activate the fuel pump shut-off
which are the criteria to initiate 911 Assist™.
Airbags generally deploy in certain frontal, near frontal, side and rollover
crashes, and the deployment of any airbag is intended to act as a 911
Assist™ trigger if those events occur. For more information about airbag
deployment, see theSeating and Safety Restraintschapter of your
Owner Guide. The fuel pump shut-off, in certain vehicles, is intended to
act as a trigger for 911 Assist™ in rear-end crashes, in which airbags
generally do not deploy. To determine if your vehicle has this trigger,
check theRoadside Emergencychapter in your Owner’s Guide. If your
Owner Guide describes a “Fuel Pump Shut-off”, it will trigger 911
Assist™. If your Owner Guide describes a “Fuel Pump Shut-offSwitch”,
it will not trigger 911 Assist™.
WARNING:Always place cell phone in a secure location to
prevent it from becoming a projectile or becoming damaged in
the event of a collision. Failure to do so may cause serious injury or
damage the phone which could prevent 911 Assist™ from functioning
properly.

911 ASSIST™ PRIVACY NOTICE: Once 911 Assist™ is enabled
(set to ON) by you, 911 Assist™ may, through any paired and
connected cell phone, disclose to emergency services that the
vehicle has been in a crash involving the deployment of an airbag
or, in certain vehicles, the activation of the fuel pump shut-off.
Certain versions or updates to 911 Assist™ may also be capable
of electronically or verbally disclosing to 911 operators the
vehicle location, and/or other details about the vehicle or crash to
assist 911 operators to provide the most appropriate emergency
services. If you do not want to disclose this information, do not
enable (set to ON) the feature.
Note:If 911 Assist™ is enabled/disabled by any user, the current setting
will apply for all paired phones. If the 911 Assist™ setting is disabled
(set to OFF), a voice message and/or display item will inform the vehicle
occupants when a previously paired phone connects to SYNCat vehicle
start up.
In the event of a crash involving the deployment of an airbag or the
activation of the fuel pump shut-off, SYNCis designed to assist
occupants in attempting to contact emergency services by dialing 911
through the occupant’s paired and connectedBluetoothenabled cellular
phone. In the event that a connected cellular phone is damaged or loses
connection to SYNC, SYNCwill search for and connect to any
available, previously paired cell phone and attempt to place the call to
911. Before initiating the call, SYNC provides a short window of time
(approximately 10 seconds) that allows the driver or passenger to decide
whether to cancel the call by pressing and holding
on the steering
wheel controls. Before initiating the 911 call for the occupants, SYNC
will say the following or a similar message:
“SYNCwill attempt to call 911. If you wish to cancel the call, press and
hold the phone button.”
If the call is not cancelled and a successful call is made, a pre-recorded
message will be played for the 911 operator and then the occupant(s) in
the vehicle will be able to communicate with the 911 operator.
Note:Failure to cancel the call by pressing
will result in SYNC
dialing 911.
Note:When you are connected to the 911 operator, be prepared to
provide your name, phone number and location immediately, because not
all 911 systems are capable of receiving this information electronically.
