PIN Check With Tele Aid Emergency Call, Function

The abbreviation PIN means Personal Identification Number. The PIN is a 4-digit code which acts as a password for telephoning with the telephone system. It must be entered by the user after switching on the telephone system (entry is optional in the case of the D1 network).

Since it is not possible to enter the PIN manually when making a TELE AID emergency call, particular measures have been taken in order to automate this process:
The user can store the PIN number in the CTEL and TELE AID transmitter/receiver, D2B (A35/17) using the handset.

In the event of an accident (signal from restraint systems control module) the CTEL and TELE AID transmitter/receiver, D2B (A35/17) accesses the stored PIN.

This is the same as manual entry of the PIN and automatically activates the telephone system to allow an emergency call to be placed over the mobile phone system.

The PIN can be changed at any time using the handset, or erased in the EPROM of the CTEL and TELE AID transmitter/receiver, D2B (A35/17).

NOTE: Do not forget that it is not possible to place a TELE AID emergency call if the PIN has been erased or not stored. As a signal, the indicator lamp in the TELE AID pushbutton switch (S93/3) then lights up. In such a case, "only" a call to the emergency services (without emergency call message) is placed, as appropriate.
