CLEVELAND, Oct. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- With floods, hurricanes, violent attacks and other disasters fresh in everyone's mind, emergency tools are becoming popular, thoughtful gifts for any occasion. For less than $25, gift- givers can ensure their loved ones have five life-saving devices with them to aid in any emergency situation.

The new BodyGard 5-in-1 Emergency Tool from SwissTech prevents vehicle entrapment due to failed windows or doors from damage, fire or submersion. It combines five life-saving tools, including an automatic glass breaker and seat belt cutter, in a device small enough to fit on a key chain or in a pocket. (PRNewsFoto/SwissTech Products)

The new BodyGard(TM) 5-in-1 Emergency Tool from SwissTech(R) is designed to help drivers escape from their vehicles when the windows or doors fail to operate due to vehicle damage, fire or submersion. It combines an automatic glass breaker, a seat belt cutter, sonic alarm, bright LED flashlight and an emergency flasher in a device small enough to fit on a key chain or in a pocket. See www.swisstechtools.com.

"With all the security, peace of mind and life-saving potential it offers, BodyGard is an ideal gift for every driver," says Bennett Rubin, executive vice president of SwissTech Products. "Unlike other glass-breaker products, BodyGard is easy to find in an emergency and doesn't require installation of a mounting plate in your car's interior."

At less than 3" x 1-3/4" x 5/8" in size, and weighing only one ounce, BodyGard attaches securely to a key ring and releases with a quick tug for fast emergency use. It also glows in the dark to help locate it in low or no light.

The glass breaker is spring-loaded to automatically deploy when pressed firmly against a vehicle's side or rear window.

The safety-blade seat belt cutter quickly frees both the driver and passengers from their seats if their seat belts do not unlatch after an accident. When not in use, the blade is housed securely within the casing to prevent accidental cutting.

Its push-button sonic alarm emits a high-decibel output and a flashing red distress light signals and directs help to your location. The high-intensity flashlight also helps users find their way in low light conditions.

BodyGard is impact-resilient with a tough ABS construction and a limited lifetime warranty. Both the glass breaker pin and safety blade are made of high-carbon steel for maximum durability. It includes a replaceable A23/12V battery and instructions for use and care.

The BodyGard 5-in-1 Emergency Tool is available from retailers nationwide at an MSRP of $24.95. For retailer listings, visit www.swisstechtools.com or call 1-800-414-8799.
