attempts to speak with the vehicle
occupants to assess the level of emer-

treats the call as an emergency, con-
tacts the nearest emergency services

requests that assistance be sent to the
location.

Safety Connect services
Safety information for Safety
Connect

2965-6. Using the other interior features
before using Safety Connect;
The Safety Connect system installed in
your vehicle is a low-power radio trans-
mitter and receiver. It receives and also
sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Commu-
nications Commission (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety lev-
els for mobile wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the
safety standards previously set by the
following U.S. and international stan-
dards bodies.
ANSI (American National Stan-
dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
 NCRP (National Council on Radia-
tion Protection and Measurement)
Report 86 [1986]
 ICNIRP (International Commission
on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec-
tion) [1996]
Those standards were based on com-
prehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. Over
120 scientists, engi neers, and physi-
cians from universi ties, and govern-
ment health agencies and industries
reviewed the available body of
research to develop the ANSI Stan-
dard (C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect com-
plies with the FCC guidelines in addi-
tion to those standards.
