voice connection to the BMW Assist Response
Center has been established, the LED flashes.

BMW Assist Response Center, the BMW Assist
Response Center contacts you and arranges
for additional steps to help you.

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.
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. Following deactivation of the
BMW Assist system, no emergency requests
can be made. The BMW Assist system can be
reactivated after concluding a new agreement
