System Requirements
•
Vehicle must have an operable 4G network connection.
•
Vehicle must be powered with a properly functioning
electrical system.
•
The ignition must be in the RUN or ACC position.
WARNING!
•
Never place anything on or near the vehicle’s 4G and
GPS aerials. You could prevent 4G and GPS signal
reception, which can prevent your vehicle from plac-
ing an emergency call. An operable 4G network con-
nection and a GPS signal is required for the SOS-
Emergency Call system to function properly.
•
Do not add any aftermarket electrical equipment to the
vehicle’s electrical system. This may prevent your
vehicle from sending a signal to initiate an emergency
call. To avoid interference that can cause the SOS-
Emergency Call system to fail, never add aftermarket
equipment (e.g., two-way mobile radio, CB radio, data
recorder, etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical system or
modify the antennas on your vehicle. IF YOUR VEHICLE
LOSES BATTERY POWER FOR ANY REASON (INCLUD-
ING DURING OR AFTER AN ACCIDENT) THE MTC+ FEA-
TURES, APPS AND SERVICES AMONG OTHERS WILL
NOT OPERATE.
•
The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) turns on
the air bag warning light in the instrument cluster if
a malfunction in any part of the air bag system is
detected. If the air bag warning light is illuminated,
the air bag system may not be working properly
and the SOS-Emergency Call system may not be
able to send a signal to an emergency service
operator. If the air bag warning light is illuminated,
contact the Service Network to have the air bag
system checked immediately.

WARNING!
•
Ignoring the LED on the SOS-Emergency Call but-
ton could mean you will not have emergency call
services if needed. If the LED on SOS-Emergency
Call button is illuminated red, contact the Service
Network to have the emergency call system
checked immediately.
•
If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger (e.g.,
fire or smoke is visible, dangerous road conditions
or location), do not wait for voice contact from an
emergency service operator. All occupants should
exit the vehicle immediately and move to a safe
location.
•
Failure to perform scheduled maintenance and
regularly inspect your vehicle may result in vehicle
damage, accident or injury.
Frequently Asked Questions:
What happens if I accidentally push the SOS Emer-
gency Call Button? You have 10 seconds after pushing
the emergency button to cancel the call. To cancel the
call, push the button again.
What type of information is sent when I make an SOS
Emergency Call from my vehicle? Certain vehicle infor-
mation, such as the VIN, is transmitted along with last
known GPS location. Also note that emergency service
operators may record conversations and sounds within
your vehicle once a connection is made, and by using
the service you consent to having this information
shared.
When can I use the SOS Emergency Call
button? You can ONLY use the SOS Emer-
gency Call button to make a call if you or
someone else needs emergency assistance.
JACKING AND TIRE CHANGING
WARNING!
•
Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the
vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull far enough off
the road to avoid the danger of being hit when
operating the jack or changing the wheel.
•
Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The
vehicle could slip off the jack and fall on you. You
could be crushed. Never put any part of your body
under a vehicle that is on a jack. If you need to get
under a raised vehicle, take it to a service center
where it can be raised on a lift.
•
Never start or run the engine while the vehicle is
on a jack.
•
The jack is designed to be used as a tool for
changing tires only. The jack should not be used to
lift the vehicle for service purposes. The vehicle
should be jacked on a firm level surface only. Avoid
ice or slippery areas.
•
The jack should be used on level firm ground wher-
ever possible.
•
It is recommended that the wheels of the vehicle
be chocked, and that no person should remain in a
vehicle that is being jacked.
•
No person should place any portion of their body
under a vehicle that is supported by a jack.
