Once the BMW Response Center has re‐
ceived your Emergency Request, the BMW
Response Center contacts you and takes
further steps to help you.
Even if you are unable to respond, the
BMW Response Center can take further
steps to help you under certain circum‐
stances.

termine the necessary rescue measures,
such as the current position of the vehicle
if it can be established, are transmitted to
the BMW Response Center.▷If the LED is flashing but the BMW Re‐
sponse Center cannot be heard on the

may be malfunctioning. However, the
BMW Response Center may still be able to
hear you.
