IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS
The Hazard Warning Flashers button is located in the
center console just below the climate control screen.
Push the button to turn on the Hazard Warning Flash-
ers. When the button is activated, all directional turn
signals will flash on and off to warn oncoming traffic of
an emergency. Push the button a second time to turn
off the Hazard Warning Flashers.
This is an emergency warning system and it should not
be used when the vehicle is in motion. Use it only when
your vehicle is disabled or signaling a safety hazard
warning for other motorists.
When you must leave the vehicle to seek assistance,
the Hazard Warning Flashers will continue to operate
even though the ignition is placed in the OFF position.
NOTE:
With extended use, the Hazard Warning Flashers may
discharge the battery.
SOS EMERGENCY CALL — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle has an on-board assistance feature that is
designed to provide support in case of accident and/or
emergency. This feature is automatically activated by
air bag deployment, or can be activated manually by
pushing the button located on the overhead console.
NOTE:
SOS-Emergency Call will only work with an enabled net-
work operator.
The SOS - Emergency Call system automatically for-
wards a call to emergency services in the event of an
accident with air bag deployment providing that the
ignition device is in the RUN position and the air bags
are working. Pressing the SOS button on the overhead
console will illuminate the light within the button. When
the connection between the vehicle and a public safety
operator is made, your vehicle will automatically trans-
mit location and vehicle information to the emergency
service operator.
Only a public safety operator can remotely end the SOS-
Emergency Call and, if necessary, call the vehicle back
through the Emergency Call system. Once the call has
ended, you can still call the emergency service operator
to indicate additional information by pushing the button
again.
To Use SOS-Emergency Call
Push or hold the SOS-Emergency Call button for a few
seconds. The LED, located within the SOS button, will
blink once and then stay on indicating a call has been
placed.
NOTE:
If the SOS-Emergency Call button is accidentally
pushed, there is a 10 second delay before the call is
placed. The system will issue a verbal alert that a call is
about to be made. To cancel the call connection, push
the SOS-Emergency Call button again.
Once a connection between the vehicle and an emer-
gency service operator is made, the SOS-Emergency
Call system will transmit the following important vehicle
information to the operator:
•
Indication that the occupant placed an SOS-
Emergency Call.
•
The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
•
The last known GPS coordinates of the vehicle.
