If a crash deploys an airbag or triggers the
fuel pump shut off, the system may
contact emergency services by dialing the
emergency assistance number through a
paired and connected cell phone. For more
information about the system and
Emergency Assistance, visit the regional
Ford website.
Note: In case of an emergency, Emergency
Assistance, as a means of communication
aid, can help you contact specific rescue
departments of public security. Emergency
Assistance does not implement the rescue
operations. The local public security
department deploys specific rescue
operations according to the actual situation.
See Supplementary Restraints System
(page 26). Important information
regarding airbag deployment is in this
chapter.
See Roadside Emergencies (page 169).
Important information regarding the fuel
pump shut-off is in this chapter.
