To summon assistance in the event of an illness or an external threat to the vehicle or passengers, the Volvo On Call customer service center can be alerted manually by pressing and holding the SOS button for at least 2 seconds. The vehicle will contact the Volvo On Call customer service center and a message will be sent containing information such as the vehicle's location.

  1. The Volvo On Call customer service center will then attempt to establish voice contact with the driver to determine the extent of the emergency and the need for assistance.
  2. The Volvo On Call customer service center will then contact the appropriate emergency service (police, ambulance, tow truck, etc.).

If voice contact cannot be established, the Volvo On Call customer service center will contact emergency services for appropriate action.
