General DescriptionLincoln's Remote Emergency Satellite Cellular Unit
(RESCU) is designed to expedite roadside or
emergency assistance to distressed motorists who
are uncertain of their location and/or are uncertain
of who to contact for assistance.
The Lincoln RESCU System utilizes Global
Positioning System (GPS) technology and the
nation's cellular phone network to track vehicle
location and, at the touch of a button, put you in

Center.
Two buttons in the overhead console will activate
the system. A tow truck icon for roadside assistance
and an ambulance icon for emergency assistance
identify the buttons.
