BMW Assist
BMW Assist provides you with various services.
For example, the position data of your vehicle
can be transmitted to the BMW Assist
Response Center if an emergency call
* has
been initiated.
Many BMW Assist services depend on the indi-
vidually agreed contract.
After your contract has expired, the BMW
Assist system will be deactivated by the BMW
Assist Response Center without you having to
visit a BMW center. Following the deactivation
of the BMW Assist systems, no BMW Assist
service is available. The BMW Assist system be
reactivated by a BMW center after signing a
new contract.

requirements are met:
>The installed BMW Assist system is logged

vices.
>To transmit position data, the vehicle must
be able to determine the current position.
>A GPS signal must be available in order for
BMW Assist to be activated and updated.
>You have placed an order for the BMW
Assist service contract at a BMW center or
BMW Assist Response Center and signed
the service contract. Enabling must have
been completed.
>BMW Assist is activated, refer to page190.

BMW Assist:
>Emergency call, refer to page219:

tion is established to the BMW Assist
Response Center. The BMW Assist
Response Center contacts you and
arranges for further steps to help you.
>Automatic emergency call:

established to the BMW Assist Response
Center directly following a serious accident.

ter then contacts you and arranges for fur-
ther steps to help you.
>Roadside Assistance:
You can call Roadside Assistance
* of the
BMW Group should you require help in the
event of a breakdown. If possible, the vehi-
cle and position data are transmitted in the
process.
>BMW Customer Relations:

BMW Customer Relations.
>TeleService:
Data on your vehicle's service status or nec-
essary inspections are transmitted to your
BMW center either automatically before a
service due date or when you request a
BMW service appointment.
>Unlocking vehicle:

e.g. if your remote control is not available
and you want to have the vehicle unlocked.

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 ultimate objective is to ensure economical
maintenance by providing the ideal service for
your vehicle.
Should the day come when you decide to sell
your BMW, you will find that a complete dealer
service history is an asset of inestimable value.
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.
You can set the Control Display to show
remaining distances and times of selected
maintenance intervals and legally mandated
deadlines, refer to page71:
>Engine oil
>Brake pads, front and rear separately
>Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
>Brake fluid
>Spark plugs>Vehicle check
>Legally required tests depending on local
regulations
Service data in remote control
Your vehicle stores the information required for
maintenance continuously in the remote con-
trol during driving. After accessing the data
stored in the remote control, your BMW Service
Advisor can suggest precisely the right array of
service procedures for your own individual vehi-
cle. For this reason, when you take your vehicle
in for service, you should give the BMW Service
Advisor the remote control last used to drive it.
Make sure the date is set correctly, refer
to page78, otherwise the effectiveness
of CBS Condition Based Service is not
ensured.<
