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 on the service sta-
tus of your vehicle or legally mandated inspec-
tions directly to your BMW center. This is the
same data that is also stored for CBS Condition
Based Service in the remote control. 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 here is that your
BMW center can prepare in advance for the
required maintenance work. The TeleService
functions are country-specific: depending on
the country in which you are driving, data on
your vehicle's service status or legally man-
dated inspections are transmitted to your BMW
center either automatically before a service due
date or when you place a call to the BMW cen-
ter. 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, differs
from country to country.
A subscriber contract for BMW Assist must be
signed and enabling must be completed before
you can use BMW Assist.
If your contract expires, the car phone can be
deactivated by a BMW center without you hav-
ing to visit a BMW center. Once the car phone
has been deactivated, emergency calls are not
possible. The car phone can be reactivated by a
BMW center after signing a new contract.You can also utilize BMW Assist services via the
Internet. The range of services offered is
expanded continually.
Requirements
You can use TeleService or BMW Assist when
the following requirements are met:
>The installed car phone is logged on to a
mobile telephone network. This network
must be capable of transmitting the ser-
vices.
>To transmit position data, the vehicle must
be able to determine the current position.
This can be displayed on the Control Dis-
play.
>A GPS signal must be available in order for
TeleService or BMW Assist to be enabled
and updated.
>For BMW Assist: you must have applied for
BMW Assist at your BMW center or BMW
customer service.
Enabling TeleService or BMW Assist
For you to be able to use the services of
TeleService or BMW Assist, these must be
enabled.
Requirements
>Make sure that the vehicle can determine its
current location. Reception is best when
you have an unobstructed view to the sky.
>Leave radio readiness switched on while
connecting to the system.
Enabling
iDrive, for operating principle refer to page16.

Maintenance
BMW Maintenance System
The BMW Maintenance System supports the
preservation of the traffic and operating safety
of your BMW. The service schedule also
includes operations related to the vehicle's
comfort and convenience features, such as
replacement of the filters for the inside air. The
objective is to optimize efforts with respect to
minimal vehicle maintenance costs.
If and when you come to sell your BMW, a com-
prehensive record of servicing will prove a sig-
nificant benefit.
CBS Condition Based Service
Sensors and special algorithms take the differ-
ent driving conditions of your BMW into
account. Condition Based Service uses this to
determine the current and future service
requirements. By letting you define a service
and maintenance regimen that reflects your
own individual requirements, the system builds
the basis for trouble-free driving.
On the Control Display, you can have the
remaining times or distances for selected main-
tenance tasks and any legally prescribed dates
displayed, refer to page71:
>Engine oil
>Brake pads: separately for front and rear
>Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
>Brake fluid
>Spark plugs
>Vehicle check>Legally mandated inspections depending
on local regulations
Service data in the remote control
Your vehicle continuously stores service-
requirement information in the remote control
while you are driving. Your BMW Service Advi-
sor can read out this data from the remote con-
trol unit, and propose an optimized mainte-
nance approach. Whenever you take your car in
for servicing you should therefore hand your
BMW Service Advisor the remote control unit
that you last used.
Make sure that the date is always set cor-
rectly, refer to page74; otherwise the
effectiveness of Condition Based Service CBS
is not assured.<

cedures are confirmed by entries in your vehi-
cle's Service and Warranty Information Booklet

the controls and displays in your vehicle. These
light-emitting diodes, which operate using a
concept similar to that applied in conventional
lasers, are officially designated as Class 1 light-
emitting diodes.
Do not remove the covers or expose the
eyes directly to the unfiltered light source
for several hours at a time, otherwise this could
cause irritation to the retina.<
Xenon lamps
These bulbs have a very long service life and are
highly unlikely to fail. If a xenon lamp fails never-
theless, switch on the fog lamps and continue
the journey with great care, provided that local
legislation does not prohibit this.
Have any work on the xenon lamp system,
including bulb replacements, performed
only by a BMW center or a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel. Otherwise, if
such work is carried out improperly, the high
voltage in the system presents the danger of
fatal injuries.<
Access to the lamps
1.Switch off the lamps and take the remote
control out of the ignition lock.
2.Remove the upper cover from the head-
lamp. To do so, use a screwdriver to press
the catches towards the rear, see arrows,
and pull the cover forward and out.
Follow the same steps in reverse order to reat-
tach the cover.
Be careful when installing the cover, oth-
erwise leaks could occur and cause dam-
age to the headlamp system.<
