Press the button for at least 2 seconds. The
indicator lamp in the button lights up. As
soon as the voice connection to the BMW
Assist response center has been estab-
lished, the indicator lamp flashes.

If conditions allow, remain in the vehicle until
the connection has been established. You will
then be able to provide a detailed description of
the situation.
In vehicles with BMW Assist enabled, if the cur-
rent location of your vehicle can be determined,
it will be transmitted to the BMW Assist
response center.
To enable BMW Assist, refer to page

If the indicator lamp is flashing but the emer-
gency call center cannot be heard over the
hands-free system, it is possible that the
hands-free system is malfunctioning. The
emergency call center may still be able to hear
you, however.
Under certain conditions, an emergency call is
automatically initiated immediately after a

severe accident. The automatic emergency call
is not affected by the button being pressed.

For technical reasons, the emergency call
cannot be guaranteed under unfavorable

conditions.
