Tele Aid The Tele Aid system
(Telematic Alarm Identification on De-
mand)
The Tele Aid system consists of three types
of response:
ț automatic and manual emergency
ț roadside assistance and
ț information
The Tele Aid system is operational provid-
ing that the vehicle’s battery is charged,
properly connected, not damaged and cel-
lular and GPS coverage is available.
The speaker volume of a Tele Aid call can
be adjusted when using the volume control
on the multifunction steering wheel. To
raise, press button
æ and to lower,
press button ç.
̈ To activate, press the SOS button, the
Roadside Assistance button
• or
the Information button ¡, depend-
ing on the type of response required.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximate-
ly 14 m) every second.
!
The initial activation of the Tele Aid sys-
tem may only be performed by com-
pleting the subscriber agreement and
placing an acquaintance call using the
SOS button. Failure to complete either
of these steps will result in a system
that is not activated. If the system is
not activated, the indicator lamp in the
SOS button stays on after turning the
SmartKey in starter switch to
position 2, or pressing the
KEYLESS-GO* start/stop button twice
to position 2. The message
TELE AID –
NOT ACTIVATED will be shown in the
multifunction display for approximately
ten seconds.
