Service contract

tivated by the authorized dealership without
you having to visit a workshop.
▷ After deactivation, an Emergency Request
is no longer possible.
▷ The system can be reactivated by an au‐
thorized dealership after you sign a new
contract.
Initiating an Emergency Request
1. Press the cover briefly to open it.
2. Press the SOS button until the LED in the
button lights up.
▷ The LED lights up: the connection is being
established.
▷ The LED flashes if the connection to the
BMW Assist Response Center has been es‐
tablished. When a cancel prompt appears on
the Control Display, the Emergency Re‐
quest can be stopped within 5 seconds.
After the Emergency Request arrives at the
BMW Assist Response Center, 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 can take further
steps to help you under certain circumstan‐
ces.
Data that are used to determine the neces‐
sary rescue measures, such as the current
position of the vehicle if it can be estab‐
lished, are transmitted to the BMW Assist
Response Center.
▷ If the situation allows, wait in your vehicle
until the voice connection has been estab‐
lished.
▷ If the LED is flashing but the BMW Assist
Response Center cannot be heard on the
hands-free system, the hands-free system
may be malfunctioning. However, the BMW
Assist Response Center may still be able to
hear you.
