Operation by voice control*
The concept
You can operate your portable phone with-
out having to remove your hands from the
steering wheel. The system operates on
the basis of voice commands that you learn
easily after using them a few times. In addi-
tion, you are also supported by instructions
or questions.

1.Briefly press the button on the steer-
ing wheel.

wheel
or
In dialogs where text of any kind can be
spoken, e.g. a name, canceling is only pos-
sible using the button. Voice control dia-
log is automatically interrupted when an

Voice commands
In addition to the commands described in
this Owner's Manual, alternative com-
mands are often possible for the same
functions, e.g.:
Digits from zero to nine are understood.
You can say each digit individually or group
them into a sequence of three to five digits
to speed up the process.
{...} Identifies voice commands.
{{...}} Identifies instructions generated
by the system.

TeleService , BMW Assist
TeleService
TeleService supports you in communicat-
ing with your BMW center. The installed car
phone can be used to transmit data on the
service status of your vehicle or on legally
mandated inspections directly to your
BMW center. This is the same data that is
also stored for CBS Condition Based Ser-
vice in the ignition key. 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 is that
your BMW center can prepare in advance
for the required maintenance work. The
functions of TeleService are country-spe-
cific: the data on the service status of your
vehicle or on legally mandated inspections
is transmitted on a country-specific basis
either automatically before they fall due or
simultaneously when you call your BMW
center. Your BMW center will be glad to
provide more detailed information.
BMW Assist
BMW Assist provides you – in addition to
TeleService – with other services, e.g. the
position data of your vehicle can be trans-
ferred to the BMW Assist emergency call
center if an emergency call is started.
Many functions of BMW Assist depend on
the individually agreed contract. The data
transmission, e.g. of CBS Condition Based
Service, is different in individual countries.
The subscriber agreement must be com-
pleted successfully before using the BMW
Assist services.
Requirements
The installed car phone is logged on to a
portable telephone network. This network
must be able to transmit the services.To transmit position data, the vehicle must
be able to determine the current position.
This is displayed on the Control Display. In

BMW Assist, a GPS signal must be present.
