GF82.95-P-2003SK Emergency Call Actuation, Function
- with CODE (359) TELE AID emergency call system

If a driver gets into an emergency situation in a remote location, a service employee can get an overview of the situation inside the vehicle using the data transmitted by the emergency call system control unit (N123/4) and initiate appropriate remedial measures. A Telematic Alarm Identification on Demand (emergency call system) (TELE AID) emergency call can be initiated automatically or manually.

Manual emergency call
It is possible to make a manual emergency call at any time. A manual emergency call is made by pressing the SOS pushbutton switch (S93/3) labeled "SOS". It is integrated into the overhead control panel control unit (N70). The SOS pushbutton switch (S93/3) is read in via a discrete line from the emergency call system control unit (N123/4). For manual activation the switch must be pressed for more than t = 0.5 seconds.

The red light emitting diode (LED) flashes for the duration of the emergency call. Then, an emergency call message is immediately transmitted to the nearest emergency call center.

Automatic emergency call
An automatic emergency call is possible after "circuit 15R ON". The crash is automatically detected by the restraint systems control unit (N2/7). The emergency call system control unit (N123/4) receives the crash information twice, once as a digital crash signal from the restraint systems control unit (N2/7) over a discrete line, and a second time (redundant) via the Controller Area Network Bus class B (interior) (CAN-B). In the event of an accident, an automatic emergency call is made immediately. This occurs no matter how severe the detected accident actually is. With crash deployments, the red LED flashes on and off for the duration of the emergency call.

The following data are transmitted automatically in a Short Message Service (SMS) message when an emergency call is made:
^ Subscriber identification module (SIM) data
^ Phone number
^ Vehicle data (e.g. circuit status)
^ Crash information (severity of accident), only for an automatic emergency call
^ Position data
^ Vehicle direction and speed

The user is now able to connect by telephone to the emergency call center. The call is ended by the emergency call center. The emergency call system control unit (N123/4) deactivates the emergency call request both for a manual and an automatic emergency call after 5 unsuccessful attempts.

It is only permissible to trigger a TELE AID emergency call in emergencies, noncompliance is a punishable offense.
