BMW Assist

BMW Assist provides you with 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-
vidually agreed contract.
After your contract has expired, the BMW
Assist system will be deactivated by the BMW
Assist Response Center without you having to
visit a BMW center. After the BMW Assist sys-
tem has been deactivated, no BMW Assist ser-
vice will be available. The BMW Assist system
can be reactivated by a BMW center after sign-
ing a new contract.

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 placed an order for the BMW
Assist service contract at a BMW center or
BMW Assist Response Center and signed
the service contract. Activation must be
completed.
