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.
Initiating an SOS Rescue
Before you can initiate an SOS rescue using your zūmo device,
you must pair it with a compatible inReach device (Connecting
an inReach Device, page 4).
NOTE: While in SOS mode, the inReach device cannot be
turned off.
1
Select Apps > inReach.
2
Select .
3
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.
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.
Select Cancel SOS > Cancel SOS.
Your device transmits the cancellation request. When you
receive a confirmation message from the emergency response
service, the device returns to normal operation.
Viewing Helmet Law Notifications
Helmet law and eye protection notifications may appear on your
zūmo device the first time your device acquires satellites and
when your device approaches a location with motorcycle safety
rules.

Helmet law notifications are for reference only, are subject to

appropriate for the active vehicle profile.

recommended route, or you can select an alternate route
(Starting a Route, page 5).
