Automatic 911 dialing (U.S.A./Canada only)
If the vehicle is involved in a moderate to severe collision, a call is made automatically to 911 from the connected device. The “Emergency Assistance Call” setting must be on.
Refer to Communication Settings (Search).
Though the system can be set to not call 911, doing so will defeat the purpose of the system. Mazda recommends that the Automatic 911 dialing system remain activated.
-
Automatic 911 dialing is a secondary function of the audio entertainment system. Therefore, the Automatic 911 dialing function does not assure that the call is always made to 911 after an accident occurs.
-
A Hands-free device must be paired and connected. The 911 operator can verify the vehicle's position information using the Hands-free device GPS if equipped.
The 911 operator can verify the vehicle’s position information.
-
If the vehicle is involved in a moderate to severe collision, notification of the call to 911 is made via audio and screen display.
To cancel the call, “Cancel” within 10 seconds.
-
If “Cancel” is not pressed within 10 seconds, the call is made to 911 automatically.
