Hands-free system
On vehicles prewired for installation of a
mobile phone, the hands-free microphone
is located on the front headliner.
The hands-free system is automatically
activated whenever you establish or
receive a call using the following:
> Button in the steering wheel
> Control Display
> Key Pad
> Voice command system.
To make SOS call
The emergency SOS call function is avail-
able only when the mobile phone receiver/
handset is in its tray.
To make call manually
Maintain pressure on button, see arrow, for
at least 1 second.
The system automatically triggers an
emergency SOS call
> when an airbag deploys
> in response to severe rear impact
> if the vehicle rolls over.
The indicator lamp in the button flashes.
If the vehicle is not equipped with a naviga-
tion system the phone system will automat-
ically establish contact to the standard 911
emergency number.
If the vehicle is equipped with a navigation
system, the phone system will automati-
cally establish contact with the BMW
ASSIST emergency call center. The system
also transmits the vehicle's current location
to the center at the same time. Following
transmission of the data a confirmation
message will appear in the Control Display.
The emergency call center can initiate
immediate action for emergency assis-
tance.
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 situa-
tion.
If the indicator lamp flashes, but you are
unable to hear the emergency call center
through the hands-free system, this could
indicate (for instance) that the hands-free
system is no longer operational. Under
these conditions you may be able to
continue the call using your BMW mobile
phone.
Misuse of the emergency call system is
forbidden under penalty of law.<
Initial operation
Press button 1 and insert the plug in the
mobile phone.
