If you are ever in an

accident that causes the airbags to
deploy, the OnStar system
automatically places a call (provided
the OnStar system and your vehicle’s
electrical system are still intact). The
advisor will attempt to speak to you
to evaluate the situation, and contact
the nearest emergency services
provider.

The OnStar system uses the global
positioning system (GPS) to locate
your vehicle whenever you place a
call. This allows the advisor to
quickly contact the nearest services
without requiring you to provide
detailed directions.

Contact

the OnStar advisor if you need
assistance with a problem (flat tire,
out of fuel, etc.) while traveling. The
advisor will contact an appropriate
agency to come and assist you.

Contact an

OnStar advisor if you have an
emergency situation. The advisor
will contact the nearest emergency
services provider (ambulance, fire
department, etc.) and advise them of
your situation.

This indicator shows you the status
of the system.

The

OnStar advisor can help you if you
are ever in a minor accident by

accident. Complete, detailed
information will make it easier to
complete accident reports and
insurance claims.
