Operation by voice control*
The concept
You can operate your portable phone with-
out having to remove your hands from the
steering wheel. The system operates on
the basis of voice commands that you learn

tion, you are also supported by instructions
or questions.

ing wheel.

wheel
or
In dialogs where text of any kind can be
spoken, e.g. a name, canceling is only pos-
sible using the button. Voice control dia-
log is automatically interrupted when an
incoming call is received.
Voice commands
In addition to the commands described in
this Owner's Manual, alternative com-
mands are often possible for the same
functions, e.g.:
Digits from zero to nine are understood.
You can say each digit individually or group
them into a sequence of three to five digits
to speed up the process.
{...} Identifies voice commands.
{{...}} Identifies instructions generated

TeleService , BMW Assist
TeleService
TeleService supports you in communicat-
ing with your BMW center. The installed car
phone can be used to transmit data on the
service status of your vehicle or on legally
mandated inspections directly to your
BMW center. This is the same data that is
also stored for CBS Condition Based Ser-
vice in the ignition key. Your BMW center
can then contact you, and you can make an
appointment that suits you while you are
still on the road. Your advantage is that
your BMW center can prepare in advance
for the required maintenance work. The
functions of TeleService are country-spe-
cific: the data on the service status of your
vehicle or on legally mandated inspections
is transmitted on a country-specific basis
either automatically before they fall due or
simultaneously when you call your BMW
center. Your BMW center will be glad to
provide more detailed information.
BMW Assist
BMW Assist provides you – in addition to
TeleService – with other services, e.g. the
position data of your vehicle can be trans-
ferred to the BMW Assist emergency call
center if an emergency call is started.
Many functions of BMW Assist depend on
the individually agreed contract. The data
transmission, e.g. of CBS Condition Based
Service, is different in individual countries.
The subscriber agreement must be com-
pleted successfully before using the BMW
Assist services.
Requirements
The installed car phone is logged on to a
portable telephone network. This network
must be able to transmit the services.To transmit position data, the vehicle must
be able to determine the current position.
This is displayed on the Control Display. In
order to enable and update TeleService or
BMW Assist, a GPS signal must be present.
Enabling TeleService or BMW Assist
For you to be able to use the services of
TeleService or BMW Assist, these must be
enabled.
Leave the ignition key in position 1 during
the entire operation.

Warning lamp* lights up.
Fuel filler cap is not properly closed

Fuel specifications
The engine uses lead-free gasoline only.
Required fuel
Premium Unleaded Gasoline,
Minimum Octane Rating: 91.
Minimum Octane Rating corresponds to
the Anti Knock Index AKI and is deter-
mined according to the so-called (R+M)/
2 method.
Do not use leaded gasoline, as other-
wise the lambda probe and catalytic
converter will be permanently damaged.<
Use high-quality brands
Field experience has indicated significant
differences in fuel quality: volatility, compo-
sition, additives, etc., among gasolines
offered for sale in the United States and
Canada. Fuels containing up to and includ-
ing 10 % ethanol or other oxygenates with
up to 2.8 % oxygen by weight, that is,
15 % MTBE or 3 % methanol plus an equiv-
alent amount of co-solvent, will not void
the applicable warranties with respect to
defects in materials or workmanship.
The use of poor-quality fuels may
result in drivability, starting and stall-
ing problems, especially under certain
environmental conditions such as high
ambient temperature and high altitude.
Should you encounter drivability problems
which you suspect could be related to the
fuel you are using, we recommend that you
respond by switching to a recognized high-
quality brand.
Failure to comply with these recommenda-
tions may also result in unscheduled main-
tenance.<
