open front air vents downward
> Reduce the volume of the hands-free
system

Giving and receiving assistance
Emergency Request*
Conditions for an Emergency Request:
>BMW Assist is activated. Activating
BMW Assist, refer to page 180.
> Radio readiness is on.
> The BMW Assist system is logged on to a
wireless network.
> The Emergency Request system is
operable.
> Equipment version with full preparation
package mobile phone. This equipment
makes it possible to send an Emergency
Request even if no mobile phone is paired
with the vehicle.
Once your service contract for BMW Assist
expires, the BMW Assist system can be deacti-
vated by a BMW center without you having to
visit a workshop. Once the BMW Assist system
has been deactivated, Emergency Requests
are not possible. The BMW Assist system can
be reactivated by a BMW center after a new
contract has been signed.
Sending an Emergency Request
1. Briefly press the cover flap to open.
2. Press the SOS button until the LED in the
button lights up.
As soon as the voice connection to the BMW
Assist Response Center has been established,
the LED flashes.
Once the BMW Assist Response Center has
received your Emergency Request, the BMW Assist Response Center contacts you
and takes further steps to help you. Even if you
are unable to respond, the BMW Assist
Response Center will be ab
le to initiate further
steps to assist you under certain conditions.
If the circumstances allo w this, remain in the
vehicle until the connection has been estab-
lished. You will then be able to provide a
detailed description of the situation.
In a BMW Assist Emerge ncy Request, data for
determining the necessary rescue measures
are transmitted to the BMW Assist Response
Center, e.g. the current po sition of your vehicle,
if it can be determined.
If the LED is flashing but the BMW Assist
Response Center cannot be heard over the
hands-free system, it is possible that the
hands-free system is malfunctioning. You may
still be heard by the BMW Assist Response
Center, however.
Under certain conditions, an Emergency
Request is sent automati cally immediately after
a severe accident. Th is Automatic Collision
Notification is not affected by the button being
pressed.
For technical reasons, the Emergency
Request service cannot be guaranteed
for the most unfavorable conditions. <

assist you around the clock in the event of a
breakdown, including on weekends and public
holidays.

tance in your home country can be found in the
