The Emergency Call system is a
device installed on a vehicle to
determine its location and move-
ment direction (using GLONASS
[Global Navigation Satellite Sys-
tem] and GPS [Global Positioning
System] signals), and ensure the
generation and transmission of
vehicle information (in a nonadjust-
able form) in case of traffic acci-
dents or other incidents on motor
roads in the countries offering
emergency notification services. In
addition, it ensures two-way voice
communication between the vehi-
cle and an ERA-GLONASS/EVAK
system operator through cellular
networks (GSM).
Automatic Emergency Calls (via
Automatic Collision Notification)
and manual Emergency Calls (by
pressing the "SOS" button) can be
made to the
ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control
center.
This service is mandatory accord-
ing to the technical regulations of
the Customs Union.

occupants are unable to communicate,
the operator automatically treats the
call as an emergency and contacts the
