If no vehicle occupant responds, an
ambulance will be sent to the vehicle imme-
diately.
G Warning!
If the indicator lamp in the SOS button is
flashing continuously and there was no
voice connection to the Response Center
established, then the Tele Aid system could
not initiate an emergency call (e.g. the rel-
evant cellular phone network is not availa-
ble).
The message Call Failed appears in the
multifunction display for approximately
10 seconds.
Should this occur, assistance must be sum-
moned by other means.
