Initiating an emergency call
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 for at least 2 sec-
onds.
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 call is received at the 
BMW Assist Response Center, the BMW Assist 
Response Center contacts you and arranges 
for additional steps to help you.
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.
If the current position of your vehicle can be 
determined, it will be forwarded to the BMW 
Assist Response Center.
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 hands-free system is no 
longer operational. However, you may then still 
be audible for the BMW Assist Response Cen-
ter.
Under certain conditions, an emergency call is 
automatically initiated immediately after a 
severe accident. The automatic emergency call 
is not affected by the button being pressed.
For technical reasons, the emergency call 
cannot be guaranteed under unfavorable 
conditions.
