Information for emergency calls
The voice control system should not be used for
emergency calls. Under stress, a person's
speech and voice pitch can change. This could
unnecessarily delay connection of your call.
Instead, use the SOS button located near the
rear-view mirror.
For further information:
Emergency call, see page 414.
