navigation system may not always be the same
ones that you would choose based on personal
experience.
You can change the choice of route as often as
you like while entering the destination and
whenever the destination guidance is active.Word matching principle
The system supports the word matching princi-
ple to make it easier for you to enter the names
of streets or towns. The system runs ongoing
checks, comparing your destination entries
with the data stored on the navigation DVD as
the basis for instant response. The user bene-
fits include:
>Names of specific locations can also vary
from the official versions if you are using a
spelling that is customary in another coun-
try.
Example:
Instead of "München", you can also enter
the English spelling "Munich" or the Italian
spelling "Monaco".
>When you are entering the names of towns
and streets the system will complete them
automatically as soon as enough letters are
available to ensure unambiguous identifica-
tion.
>The system only accepts name entries
beginning with letters that are stored on the
navigation DVD. The system will not accept
nonexistent names and addresses.

TeleService , BMW Assist
TeleService
TeleService supports you when communicat-
ing with a BMW center. The built-in car phone
can be used to transmit data regarding the ser-
vice status of your vehicle or regarding legally
mandated inspections directly to your BMW
center. This is the same data that is also stored
for CBS Condition Based Service in the master
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 advan-
tage here is that your BMW center can prepare
in advance for the required maintenance work.
The functions of TeleService are country-spe-
cific and depend on your contract: the data
regarding the service status of your vehicle or
regarding legally mandated inspections is
transmitted on a country-specific basis either
automatically before they fall due or during your
calls to the BMW center. Your BMW center will
be glad to provide more detailed information.
BMW Assist
BMW Assist provides you with other services in
addition to TeleService. For example, the posi-
tion data of your vehicle can be transferred to
the BMW Assist response center if an emer-
gency call
* has been initiated.
Many functions of BMW Assist depend on the
individually agreed contract. Data transmission,
e. g. of the CBS Condition Based Service, dif-
fers from country to country.
The subscriber agreement must be completed
successfully before using the BMW Assist ser-
vices.
Requirements
The installed car phone is logged on to a porta-
ble telephone network. This network must be
capable of transmitting 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.
To do this, leave the ignition key in position 1
during the entire process.
Control Center, for principle details, refer to
page16.
