Group offers you assistance in the
event of a breakdown around the clock,
also at weekends and on public holi-
days.
The phone numbers of the Roadside
Assistance control center in your home
country can be found in the BMW
Dealer Directory.
In the case of vehicles with the corre-
sponding equipment, you can use
buttons in the headlining to contact
Roadside Assistance or initiate an
emergency call.
When the emergency call is initiated,
a telephone connection with the BMW
Assist response center is established.
In vehicles with activated BMW Assist,
if the current position of your vehicle
can be determined, it is transmitted to
the BMW Assist response center.

gency call or contacting Roadside
Assistance:
>Ignition key in position 1

mobile telephone network
>The emergency call system is opera-
ble.1 Initiating an emergency call

gency call cannot be guaranteed

gency call is initiated automatically
