Sending an SOS
Introduction
In an emergency, you can send an SOS message that includes your location information
to previously registered contacts, or you can set it up your Watch to send an SOS message
automatically when you are hurt from a fall and your Watch recognises it. Also, you can set
the Watch to automatically make an emergency call to a previously registered contact.
• If the GPS feature is not activated on your Watch when sending an SOS, the GPS
feature will be activated automatically to send the location information.
• Your location information may not be sent depending on your region or situation.
