Functional requirements
▷ Standby state is switched on.
▷ The Assist system is functional.
▷ If the vehicle is equipped with intelligent
emergency call: the integrated SIM card in
the vehicle has been activated.
Automatic triggering
Under certain conditions, for instance if the air‐

initiated immediately after an accident of corre‐
sponding severity. Automatic Collision Notifica‐
tion is not affected by pressing the SOS button.
Manual triggering
1. Tap the cover.
2. Press and hold the SOS button until the LED
in the area of the button illuminates green.
▷ The LED is illuminated green when an emer‐
gency call has been initiated.
If a cancel prompt appears on the Control
Display, the emergency call can be aborted.
If the situation allows, wait in your vehicle until
the voice connection has been established.
▷ The LED flashes green when a connection to
the BMW Response Center has been estab‐
lished.
The BMW Response Center then makes
contact with the occupants of the vehicle and
initiates further steps to help.
Even if you are unable to respond, the BMW
Response Center can take further steps to
help you under certain circumstances.
For this purpose, data that serves to deter‐
mine the necessary rescue measures, for in‐
stance the current position of the vehicle
when it can be determined, is transmitted to
the BMW Response Center.
Even if the BMW Response Center is no lon‐
ger heard through the loudspeakers, the
BMW Response Center may still be able to
hear the occupants of the vehicle.
