Similarly, if the cellular call is disconnected by the network prior to
receipt of the termination tone, another call to the response center will
also automatically be dialed. The message ªREDIAL IN PROGRESSº will
be displayed on the message center and voice communication with an
operator will be restored.
During redial calls, full control of the cellular phone is returned to you.
Pressing either PWR or END on the cellular handset will terminate the
assistance request and reset the system.
Location data retransmit capability
During an activation, the Lincoln Security Response Center operator has
the capability to initiate a retransmission of the electronic data message.
This may be necessary to ensure a more precise determination of vehicle
location or to track a vehicle that is moving. To accomplish the
retransmit, a special tone is sent to the vehicle by the response center.
In this situation you will temporarily lose voice contact with the operator
and the messages ªSENDING LOCATION DATAº and ªDATA RECEIVEDº
will be respectively displayed on the message center. After the data
retransmission is complete, voice communication will be restored and the
CID, LAT, LON and HDG message will again alternately toggle on the
message center display.
Global positioning system
Vehicle location is continuously updated via Global Positioning System
(GPS) technology. GPS was developed by the U.S. Department of
Defense for worldwide navigational and positioning purposes. It utilizes a
constellation of 24 orbiting satellites located more than 20 000 km
(12 428 miles) above the earth. At any given time, several of the
24 satellites should be visible to the vehicle's GPS receiver. Based on the
time for signals emitted by these satellites to reach the receiver, an
on-board computer will determine the vehicle's location, typically within
30 meters (100 feet). In addition to latitude and longitude, the system
also determines heading and speed.
Vehicle positioning information is relayed to the Lincoln Security
Response Center only during roadside or emergency requests. The
response center will not be able to track your location while in an
inactive state.

Inoperative if cellular signal marginal or unavailable
Since the Lincoln RESCU System utilizes the vehicle's cellular phone, it
can only be operated in geographical areas with cellular coverage.
Although approximately 90 percent of the U.S. population lives and
works in cellular coverage areas, there are various rural or mountainous
areas where coverage is marginal or does not exist. If an activation
occurs in this situation, the messages ªNO CELLULAR SIGNALº and
ªWAITING TO ACQUIREº will alternately be displayed on the message
center. If after several attempts cellular service can not be acquired, the
message ªUNABLE TO PLACE CALLº will be displayed, the assistance
request will be terminated and the phone will return to its normal
operating mode.
Inoperative if cellular system is busy
In a particular area, the local cellular system can only handle a limited
number of cellular calls at one time. Once volume has reached the
maximum limit, additional callers are denied access. If an activation
occurs in this situation, the messages ªCELLULAR SYSTEM BUSYº and
ªPLEASE WAITº will alternately be displayed on the message center. If
after several attempts a cellular channel cannot be acquired, the message
ªUNABLE TO PLACE CALLº will be displayed, the assistance request
will be terminated and the phone will return to its normal operating
mode.
Incompatible with cellular PIN feature
Some cellular carriers offer custom phone numbers that are assigned a
personal identification number (PIN). In this situation, the user is
required to enter the PIN with any phone calls made over the network.
The Lincoln RESCU System is not compatible with the PIN feature. At
the time your phone is activated, ask your carrier to assign you a phone
number that does not require an personal identification number. If you
have difficulty obtaining a non-PIN number, contact you dealer or call
the Ford Cellular System Clearinghouse at 1±800±367±3357 for
assistance.
Incompatible or performance limited with certain cellular providers
features
Some cellular carriers offer customers various optional features with
their cellular services. Several of these features are not compatible or
could potentially limit the performance of your Lincoln RESCU System.
No outgoing calls, hotline and NPA restrictions are incompatible cellular
