1-3. Emergency assistance
WARNING
• When the vehicle is out of the cellular
phone service area, the Emergency
Calls cannot be made.
• When any related equipment (such as
the "SOS" button panel, indicator
lights, microphone, speaker, DCM,
antenna, or any wires connecting the
equipment) is malfunctioning, dam-
aged or broken, the Emergency Call
cannot be made.
• During an Emergency Call, the system
makes repeated attempts to connect
to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK con-
trol center. However, if it cannot con-
nect to the ERA-GLONASS/EVAK
control center due to poor radio wave
reception, the system may not be able
to connect to the cellular network and
the call may finish without connecting.
The red indicator light will blink for
approximately 30 seconds to indicate
this disconnection.
• This device may not function if a shock
is applied to it.
If the battery's voltage decreases or
●
there is a disconnection, the system
may not be able to connect to the
ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control
center.
When the Emergency Call system is
■
replaced with a new one
The Emergency Call system should be
registered. Contact your Lexus dealer.
For your safety
■
Please drive safely.
●
The function of this system is to assist
you in making the Emergency Call in
case of accidents such as traffic acci-
dents or sudden medical emergencies,
and it does not protect the driver or
passengers in any way. Please drive
safely and fasten your seatbelts at all
times for your safety.

In case of an emergency, make lives
●
the top priority.
If you smell anything burning or other
●
unusual smells, leave the vehicle and
evacuate to a safe area immediately.
Since the system detects shocks, the
●
automatic reporting may not always
occur synchronized with the operation
of the airbag system. (If the vehicle is
struck from behind, etc.)
For safety, do not make the Emergency
●
Call while driving.
Making calls during driving may cause
mishandling of the steering wheel,
which may lead to unexpected acci-
dents.
Stop the vehicle and confirm the safety
of your surroundings before making
the Emergency Call.
When changing fuses, please use the
●
specified fuses. Using other fuses may
cause ignition or smoke in the circuit
and lead to a fire.
Using the system while there is smoke
●
or an unusual smell may cause a fire.
Stop using the system immediately and
consult your Lexus dealer.

gency Calls, confirm the system status, or
