Automatic Emergency Calls
If any airbag deploys, the system is
designed to automatically call the
ERA-GLONASS/EVAK control cen-
ter.
*
The answering operator receives
the vehicle’s location, the time of the
incident and the vehicle VIN, and
attempts to speak with the vehicle
occupants to assess the situation. If the
occupants are unable to communicate,
the operator automatically treats the
call as an emergency and contacts the
ERA-GLONASS/EVAK

The Emergency Call system is a
device installed on a vehicle to
determine its location and move-
ment direction (using GLONASS
[Global Navigation Satellite Sys-
tem] and GPS [Global Positioning
System] signals), and ensure the
generation and transmission of
vehicle information (in a nonadjust-
able form) in case of traffic acci-
dents or other incidents on motor
roads in the countries offering
emergency notification services. In
addition, it ensures two-way voice
communication between the vehi-
cle and an ERA-GLONASS/EVAK
system operator through cellular
networks (GSM).
Automatic Emergency Calls (via
Automatic Collision Notification)
and manual Emergency Calls (by
pressing the “SOS” button) can be
made to the ERA-
GLONASS/EVAK control center.
This service is mandatory accord-
ing to the technical regulations of
the Customs Union.
