SOS
During an emergency, you can contact the GEOS International
Emergency Rescue Coordination Center (IERCC) to request
help. Pressing the SOS key 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.
Initiating an SOS Rescue
NOTE: While in SOS mode, the status bar is red and the device
cannot be turned off.

Lift the protective cap
À

Hold the SOS key.

Wait for the SOS countdown.
The device sends a default message to the emergency
response service with details about your location.
4
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.
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.
Sending a Custom SOS Message
You can initiate an SOS rescue with a custom message using
the SOS page.

Select SOS > Emergency > Write SOS.

Canceling an SOS Rescue
If you no longer need assistance, you can cancel an SOS
rescue after it is sent to the emergency response service.
1
Lift the protective cap, and hold the SOS key.
2
Select Cancel.
Your device transmits the cancellation request. When you
receive a confirmation message from the emergency
response service, the device returns to normal operation.
Tracking
Tracking records your path. When you start tracking, your
device logs your location and updates the track line on the map
at the specified log interval. Your device records track points
and transmits them over the satellite network at the specified
send interval. You can view the number of track points sent,
storage space remaining, and time until the tracking log storage
is full.
TIP: You can adjust the tracking log interval and the tracking
send interval to maximize battery life (Tracking Settings,
page 6).
