Giving and receiving assistance
Emergency calling*
Conditions for an emergency call:
>Radio readiness is switched on.
>The car phone is logged on to a portable
telephone network.
>The emergency call system is operable.
Initiating an emergency call
1.To open the protective cover of the keypad:
touch the protective cover.
2.Press the button for at least 2 seconds. The
indicator lamp in the button lights up. As
soon as the voice connection to the BMW
Assist response center has been estab-
lished, the indicator lamp flashes.
If conditions allow, remain in the vehicle until
the connection has been established. You will
then be able to provide a detailed description of
the situation.
In vehicles with BMW Assist enabled, if the cur-
rent location of your vehicle can be determined,
it will be transmitted to the BMW Assist
response center.
To enable BMW Assist, refer to page160.
If the indicator lamp is flashing but the emer-
gency call center cannot be heard over the
hands-free system, it is possible that the
hands-free system is malfunctioning. The
emergency call center may still be able to hear
you, however.
Under certain conditions, an emergency call is
automatically initiated immediately after a severe accident. The automatic emergency call
is not affected by the button being pressed.
For technical reasons, the emergency call
cannot be guaranteed under unfavorable
conditions.<
Roadside Assistance
The BMW Group's Roadside Assistance ser-
vice is there to assist you around the clock in
the event of a breakdown, including on week-
ends and public holidays.
The phone numbers of the Roadside Assis-
tance in your home country can be found in the
Contact brochure.
In vehicles equipped with BMW Assist or
TeleService, you can establish contact with the
BMW Group's Roadside Assistance for break-
down assistance directly via iDrive, refer to
page162.
First-aid kit*
The first-aid pouch is on the right-hand side of
the luggage compartment in a storage area.
Some of the articles contained in the first-
aid kit have a limited service life. There-
fore, check the expiration dates of the contents
regularly and replace any items in good time, if
necessary. You can find replacements in any
pharmacy.
