Useful features
System self-check
Initially, after switching on the ignition,
malfunctions are detected and indicated
(the indicator lamps in the SOS button, the
Roadside Assistance button• and the

indicator lamp in the SOS button will begin
to flash. The message:

appears in the multifunction display and
the audio system is muted. When the con-
nection is established, the message:

CONNECTED
appears in the multifunction
display. All information relevant to the
emergency, such as the location of the ve-
hicle (determined by the GPS satellite loca-
tion system), vehicle model, identification
number and color are generated.

lites for vehicle location. If either of
these signals are unavailable, the Tele
