Placing phone calls with BMW Assist
system*: BMW Assist calls
You can use the BMW Assist system via the
hands-free unit for BMW Assist calls.
When the status information "BMW Assist" or
"BMW Service" is displayed in "Communica-
tion", only BMW Assist calls are possible.
It may not be possible to establish a telephone
connection using the mobile phone while a con-
nection is being established to BMW Assist
or while a call to BMW Assist is already in
progress. If this happens, you must log off the
mobile phone from the vehicle if you wish to
place a call with the mobile phone.
Commissioning

tion package. Information on this subject is

tings on the mobile phone are necessary:

ple, result in vehicle failing to detect the

tooth passkey is no longer required follow-
ing successful pairing.

stand you well, this may be due to excessively
loud background noises. The full mobile phone
