Emergency request
Conditions for an emergency request:
>Full preparation package mobile phone. 
With this equipment, an emergency request 
is still possible when no mobile phone is 
paired in the vehicle.
> BMW Assist is activated. 
Activating BMW Assist, refer to page 240.
> Radio readiness is switched on.
> The BMW Assist system is logged in on a 
wireless communications network.
> The emergency request system is opera-
ble.
When the contract of participation with BMW 
Assist expires, the BMW Assist system can be 
deactivated by a BMW Sports Activity Vehicle 
Center without having to  visit a workshop. Once 
the BMW Assist system has been deactivated, 
emergency requests are not possible. The 
BMW Assist system be reactivated by a BMW 
Sports Activity Vehicle Center after signing a 
new contract.
Initiating an emergency request
1. Briefly press protective cover to open. 
Depending on the vehicle's equipment, the 
arrangement of the switches and indicator 
lamps may differ somewhat.
2. Press the SOS button until the LED in the 
button lights up. As soon as the voice connection to the BMW 
Assist Response Center has been established, 
the LED flashes.
When the emergency request is received at the 
BMW Assist Response Center, the BMW Assist 
Response Center contacts you and takes fur-
ther steps to help you. Even if you are unable to 
answer, the BMW Assist Response Center can 
take further steps to help you under certain 
conditions.
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.
Information for determining the required rescue 
measures is transmitted to the BMW Assist 
Response Center, e.g. the current position of 
your vehicle, if this  can be determined.
If the LED flashes, but  you are unable to hear 
the BMW Assist Response Center through the 
hands-free system, this could indicate, for 
instance, that the hand s-free system is no 
longer operational. The BMW Assist Response 
Center may still be able to hear you, however.
Under certain conditions, an emergency 
request is automatically  initiated immediately 
after a severe accident . An automatic collision 
notification is not affected by the button being 
pressed.
For technical reasons, the emergency 
request cannot be  guaranteed under 
unfavorable conditions. <
Warning triangle*
The warning triangle is located in the cargo bay.
First-aid kit*
Some of the articles cont ained in the first-aid kit 
have a limited service life. Therefore, check the 
expiration dates of the  contents regularly and
