The Tele Aid system
(Tele
matic Alarm Identification on

emand)
The Tele Aid system consists of three
types of response:
ț automatic and manual emergency

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 are available.
The speaker volume of a Tele Aid call can

the COMAND system headunit or on the
multifunction steering wheel. To raise, turn
the rotary volume control on the COMAND
system headunit clockwise or press

The initial activation of the Tele Aid system
may only be performed by completing the sub-
scriber agreement and placing an acquaintance
call using the ¡ button. Failure to complete
either of these steps will result in a system that
is not activated.

The Tele Aid system utilizes the cellular
network for communication and the GPS (G
lobal
P
ositioning System) satellites for vehicle
location. If either of these signals are unavail-
able, the Tele Aid system may not function and if
this occurs, assistance must be summoned by
other means.
