SOS
During an emergency, you can contact the GEOS International
Emergency Rescue Coordination Center (IERCC) to request
help. Pressing the SOS button sends a message to the rescue
coordination center, and they notify the appropriate emergency
responders of your situation. You can communicate with the
rescue coordination center during your emergency while you
wait for help to arrive. You should only use the SOS function in a
real emergency situation.

NOTE: While in SOS mode, the device cannot be turned off.

The device sends a default message to the emergency
response service with details about your location.

Reply to the confirmation message from the emergency
response service.
Your reply lets the emergency response service know that
you are capable of interacting with them during the rescue. If
you do not reply, the emergency response service will still
initiate a rescue.
For the first 10 minutes of your rescue, an updated location is
sent to the emergency response service every minute. To
conserve battery power after the first 10 minutes, an updated
location is sent every 10 minutes when moving, and every 30
minutes when stationary.

can reply with a custom message using the SOS page.
