An address book sharing system includes a vehicle, a short-range enabled in-vehicle telematics unit embedded in the vehicle, and a short-range enabled wireless device. The short-range enabled wireless device is configured to be paired with the short-range enabled in-vehicle telematics unit when positioned in the vehicle, and to download an address book to the short-range enabled in-vehicle telematics unit in response to an address book request trigger generated by the short-range enabled in-vehicle telematics unit. Methods for non-verbally adding address book contents using the address book sharing system are also disclosed herein.

The invention provides a method for inband emergency notification for voice calls by multiplexing at least one emergency signal within an audible data stream and transmitting the audible data stream from a telematic communication unit to a mobile vehicle communication system. The mobile vehicle communication system decodes the emergency signal from the audible data stream and provides an emergency service as a function of the emergency signal.

A method of generating navigation instructions for a vehicle is provided. A destination of the vehicle is received at a route generation application. A maneuver list comprising a plurality of navigation instructions is calculated based on a current location of the vehicle and the destination. A distance threshold is determined based on the current location of the vehicle and the destination. The navigation instructions located within the distance threshold are determined and transmitted from the route generation application to the vehicle. The navigation instructions located within the distance threshold are executed at the vehicle. Systems and programs for using the method are also provided.
