BMW Assist
BMW Assist offers you various services; for
example, the position data of your vehicle can
be transmitted to the BMW Assist Response
Center if an emergency call
* has been initiated.
Many BMW Assist services depend on the indi-
vidual contract.
After your contract has expired, the BMW
Assist system will be deactivated by the BMW
Assist Response Center without your visiting a
BMW center. After the BMW Assist system has
been deactivated, no BMW Assist service will
be available. The BMW Assist system can be
reactivated by a BMW center after a new con-
tract has been signed.
Requirements
You can use BMW Assist when the following
requirements are met:
> The installed BMW Assist system is logged
on to a mobile phone network. This network
must be capable of transmitting the ser-
vices.
> To transmit position data, the vehicle must
be able to determine the current position.
> A GPS signal must be available in order for
BMW Assist to be activated and updated.
> You have signed a BMW Assist subscriber
contract at the BMW center or the BMW
Assist Response Center. Activation must
be completed.
> BMW Assist is activated, refer to page 193 .

tion is established to the BMW Assist

Once the BMW Assist Response Center

tions, the BMW Assist Response Center
can still take additional steps to assist you.

* of
the BMW Group should you require help in
the event of a breakdown. If possible, the
vehicle data and position data are transmit-
ted during this time.

vehicle or required inspections is transmit-
ted to your BMW center either automati-
cally before a service due date or when you
