SOS EMERGENCY CALL OR 112 eCALL  [G4186821]

NOTE:

If you do not activate or renew your SOS emergency call or 112 eCall service as part of your InControl Remote subscription, a limited emergency call service will remain active for a total of 10 years from the start of the original manufacturer’s warranty period for the vehicle. Connectivity between the vehicle and emergency services and/or Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) will continue, which will be triggered in the event of an emergency. For more information, please refer to the InControl end user terms found at: www.landrover.com.

NOTE:

A good network coverage is required to operate the SOS emergency call or 112 eCall button. Certain areas with a poor network coverage does not allow the SOS emergency call or 112 eCall feature to operate.

NOTE:

EU specification importing countries feature a free 112 eCall service which is mandated by EU law.

There are two states of emergency call (eCall): Automatic and manual operation. In a crash situation, where the airbags have deployed, an automatic emergency call is made to the emergency services. In a non-crash situation, when emergency assistance is required, the emergency call button can be used manually.

In both states, the button flashes yellow until the emergency services answer the call, at which point the flashing stops.

The emergency call system collects and processes the following information for the purposes of the emergency:

  1. The vehicle's last three locations and direction of travel.
  2. Log file of the automatic activation of the system and its timestamp.
  3. Vehicle information such as VIN, propulsion type, and colour.
  4. Any additional data.

The appropriate emergency services are despatched to the vehicle's location. Contact with the emergency services agent can be made, at any time, by pressing the emergency call button.

The emergency call button is located in the overhead console, on the right side. See DRIVER CONTROLS.

Press and release the button's cover to reveal the button. A red LED illuminates in the button. Press the button for 3 seconds to make a direct call to the emergency services.

NOTE:

If the vehicle is travelling in a different country, the emergency call may still connect. However, the vehicle’s location and the vehicle's details may not be automatically sent to the local provider.

There is a single battery that maintains full system operation in the event that the vehicle's battery is disconnected or disabled. The battery is guaranteed for the vehicle's warranty period. If the battery requires replacement, the instrument panel displays a warning message. Consult a retailer/authorised repairer for a replacement battery.

If the system is faulty, an SOS emergency call fault icon¹ displays red in the overhead console. The instrument panel also displays a warning message to contact a retailer/authorised repairer. If this occurs, the vehicle can still be driven, but consult a retailer/authorised repairer at the earliest opportunity.

  2. After pressing the Optimised Land Rover Assistance call button for 3 seconds, also press the emergency call button for at least 3 seconds. The call button's LEDs flash amber as the test procedure starts and continue to flash until the test procedure ends.

The results of test procedure will be displayed in the instrument panel. In addition, a call is made to the Land Rover automated line. Where you will hear a recorded message.

If the system is faulty, an SOS emergency call fault icon¹ displays red in the overhead console. The instrument panel also displays a warning message to contact a retailer/authorised repairer.

NOTE:

A warning message is also displayed if there is no network reception. Move the vehicle to an area of good reception and retest.

The test procedure will end after 5 minutes if the ignition is switched off, or if the vehicle is driven more than 300 m.
