Automatic alarm
In the event of an accident where a belt tensioner, airbag or inflatable curtain is activated, a signal is sent automatically to the VOC Service Centre.
If the belt tensioners, airbags or inflatable curtain have been deployed then the following occurs:
- A message is automatically sent from the car to the VOC Service Centre with information about the car's position and that the SRS system has been deployed.
- The VOC Service Centre then establishes verbal contact with the car's driver and tries to find out the extent of the collision and the need for help.
- The VOC Service Centre then contacts the necessary assistance (police, ambulance, towing, etc.).
If verbal contact cannot be established, the VOC Service Centre contacts the relevant authorities that assist with appropriate action.

Roadside assistance

Emergency number
When the alarm service is activated the system attempts to establish contact with the VOC Service Centre. If this is not possible then the call is routed to the designated emergency number for the area where the car is located.
