Volvo Assistance1

To summon help in case of illness, external threats to the car or passengers, Volvo Assistance can be alerted manually by depressing the SOS button for at least 2 seconds. The car calls Volvo Assistance and a message is sent containing the car's position, among other things.

Volvo Assistance tries to establish verbal contact with the car's driver and to find out the extent of the emergency situation and the need for help.

Volvo Assistance then contacts the necessary assistance (police, ambulance, recovery, etc.).

If verbal contact cannot be established, Volvo Assistance contacts the relevant authorities that assist with appropriate action.
