TeleService* , BMW Assist*
TeleService
You can also use the services of BMW Assist via
the Internet. The range of services is continually
being expanded.
TeleService supports you when communicat-
ing with a BMW center. The built-in car phone
can be used to transmit data regarding the ser-
vice status of your vehicle or regarding legally
mandated inspections directly to your BMW
center. This is the same data that is also stored
for CBS Condition Based Service in the remove
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 mainte-
nance work. The TeleService functions are
country-specific: the data regarding the service
status of your vehicle or regarding legally man-
dated inspections is transmitted on a country-
specific basis either automatically before they
fall due or during your calls to the BMW center.
Your BMW center will be glad to provide more
detailed information.

vices.
>

BMW Assist
Enabling TeleService or 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.
For you to be able to use the services of
TeleService or BMW Assist, these must be
enabled.
Requirements
Many functions of BMW Assist depend on the
individually agreed contract. Data transmission,
e.g. of the CBS Condition Based Service, dif-
fers from country to country.
>
Make sure that the vehicle can determine its
current position. Reception is best when
you have an unobstructed view to the sky.
>
Leave radio readiness switched on while
connecting to the system.
The contract of participation with BMW Assist
and the activation must be completed before
you can use BMW Assist.
Enabling
When the contract expires, the car phone can
be deactivated by a BMW center without having
to visit a BMW center. Following deactivation of
the car phone, no emergency calls can be
made. The car phone can be reactivated after
signing a new contract with a BMW center.
