Note
When contact with Volvo Assistance is given priority, more information is transmitted from the car and more extensive help can be given than if the public emergency call centre is the primary contact. If contact with Volvo Assistance cannot be established, the car contacts the public emergency call centre instead.
If, on the other hand, the public emergency call centre is given priority and it is not possible to establish contact, no attempt is made to reach Volvo Assistance instead.
