Safety notes
For your own safety
A car phone makes life more convenient in
many ways, and can even save lives in an emer-
gency. While you should consult your portable
phone's separate Owner's Manual for a detailed
description of safety precautions and informa-
tion, we request that you direct your particular
attention to the following:
Adjustments
Only make entries when the traffic situa-
tion allows you to do so. Do not hold the
portable phone in your hand while you are driv-
ing; use the hands-free system instead. If you
do not observe this precaution, your being dis-
tracted can endanger vehicle occupants and
other road users.
BMW discourages the use of portable phones
or other mobile communications devices inside
the vehicle without a direct connection to an
outside antenna. Otherwise, interferences
between vehicle electronics systems and the
mobile communication device cannot be ruled
out. Moreover, there is no guarantee that the
radiation generated when such devices are
transmitting will be dissipated out of the vehi-
cle's interior.<
Care instructions
You can find what you need to know about car-
ing for your portable phone in the separate Car-
ing for your vehicle brochure and in the portable
phone Owner's Manual.
Operating options
You can operate the portable phone* using:
>The steering wheel, refer to page10
>iDrive, refer to page153>Voice commands, refer to page156
You can get information about activating the
portable phone in the separate Owner's Manual
for the Full Preparation Package Cellphone.
Making calls with the car phone:
BMW Assist calls
You can use the car phone via the hands-free
system for BMW Assist calls.
When the status information "BMW Assist" or
"BMW Service" is displayed in "Communica-
tion", only BMW Assist calls are possible.
It may not be possible to establish a telephone
connection using the portable phone while a
connection is being established to BMW Assist
or while a call to BMW Assist is already in
progress. If this happens, you must unpair the
portable phone and the vehicle if you wish to
place a call with the portable phone.
Hands-free system
The hands-free microphone is located on the
headliner.
The hands-free system is activated whenever
you establish or receive a call using:
>The buttons on the steering wheel
>iDrive
>Voice commands
