To open the protective cover of the keypad: 
touch the protective cover.
2.
Press the button for at least 2 seconds.
The indicator lamp in the button lights up. 
As soon as the voice connection to the 
BMW Assist response center has been 
established, the indicator lamp flashes.
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 location of your vehicle can be 
determined with vehicles with an activated 
BMW Assist, it will be transmitted to the BMW 
Assist response center.
Activating BMW Assist, refer to page
.
If the indicator lamp flashes, but you are unable 
to hear the BMW Assist response center 
through the hands-free system, this could indi-
cate, for instance, that the hands-free system 
is no longer operational. However, the BMW 
Assist response center may then still be able to 
hear you.
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.

fore, check the expiration dates of the contents 
regularly and replace the contents concerned in 
good time if necessary. You can find replace-
ments in any pharmacy. Comply with legal
