Giving and receiving assistance
Emergency call*
If the circumstances allow 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.
Conditions for an emergency call:
>
Equipment version with full mobile phone
preparation package. This equipment
makes it possible to initiate an emergency
call even if no mobile phone is paired with
the vehicle.
If the current location of your vehicle can be
determined, it will be transmitted to the BMW
Assist Response Center.
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.
>
BMW Assist is activated. Activating
BMW Assist, refer to page 195.
>
>
Radio readiness is on.
The BMW Assist system is logged on to a
mobile phone network.
Under certain conditions, an emergency call is
automatically initiated immediately after a
severe accident. This Automatic Collision Noti-
fication is not affected by the button being
pressed.
>
The emergency calling system is operable.
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 calls are not
possible. The BMW Assist system can be reac-
tivated by a BMW center after a new contract
has been signed.
For technical reasons, the emergency
calling services cannot be guaranteed for
the most unfavorable conditions.<
