Safety notes
The BMW CD drives are Class 1 laser products. Do not operate if the cover is damaged, otherwise severe eye damage can result. Do not use self-recorded CDs with labels applied as these can become detached during playback due to heat build-up and can cause irreparable damage to the device. Only use round CDs with a standard diameter of 4.7 in/12 cm and do not play CDs with an adapter, e.g. Single-CDs, otherwise the CDs or the adapter can jam and may no longer be ejected. Do not use a combined CD/DVD, e.g. DVDPlus, as otherwise the CD/DVD can jam and will no longer eject.<
Malfunctions To prevent illegal CD copying, manufacturers often use copy protection. This can mean than some CDs cannot be played or can only be played to a limited extent. In this case, please contact the CD dealer or manufacturer. You may experience playback problems, such as skips, when using CD-Rs/CD-RWs that you

Safety notes
For your own safety A car phone makes life more convenient in many ways, and can even save lives in an emer- gency. While you should consult your portable phone's separate Owner's Manual for a detailed description of safety precautions and informa- tion, we request that you direct your particular attention to the following:
Adjustments
To avoid posing a danger to yourself and other road users, never adjust the system
settings unless your vehicle is stationary.<
Using the phone in your vehicle
Using a portable phone to make and receive calls while driving is already illegal in many countries in the world. Always use your hands-free system, or stop your vehicle in an area where you will not pose a safety hazard to other road users.<
Vehicles and portable phones
Do not use your portable phone from within a garage, or near an open hood.
The air in these areas could contain fuel vapors, and the portable phone might generate sparks that could cause fires. This same precaution applies to open luggage compartment lids on vehicles equipped for operation using natural gas or hydrogen, and to all vehicles with luggage compartment- mounted batteries.<
Antenna
When using the portable phone, ensure that all persons in the area are at least
20 in/50 cm from the antenna. Do not use the portable phone when the antenna is damaged. Contact between your skin and a damaged antenna can result in minor burns.
152
If the antenna is damaged, have it replaced immediately.<
Special environmental conditions
Always switch off your portable phone in areas where blasting work is being con-
ducted with explosives. The phone signals could potentially act as a high-frequency trans- mitter and set off explosions. Always switch off your portable phone in areas where an increased explosion danger is present. This category includes service stations along with fuel and chemical storage depots, etc., and all areas in which the air can contain fuel, chemicals or metal particles. Under these conditions, your portable phone could conceiv- ably generate sparks that could lead to a fire or explosion. Always observe all legal regulations governing the use of portable phones in the vicinity of service stations, chemical factories and other areas where an explosion potential exists. Never use your portable phone in air- craft; do not use this portable phone in hospi- tals, care centers or at other locations where medical equipment may be in operation, such as accident sites. Your service provider can furnish you with more detailed information on legal regulations gov- erning the use of your phone.<
Medical equipment
Portable phones can generate interfer- ence capable of preventing hearing aids
and cardiac pacemakers from operating cor- rectly. If you or any occupant of the vehicle will be using such equipment, consult a physician or the manufacturer of the equipment to deter- mine whether it is adequately shielded against high-frequency energy.<
Batteries
Never attempt to dismantle your portable phone or its battery. Use only approved battery types – the wrong battery can destroy
your portable phone. To avoid possible short circuits, after removing a battery you should never allow it to come into contact with metallic surfaces of any kind.<
Disposing of used batteries
Return used batteries to a recycling col- lection point or to your BMW center.<
Care instructions You can find what you need to know about car- ing for your portable phone in the separate Car- ing for your vehicle brochure and in the portable phone Owner's Manual.
Operating options You can operate the portable phone* with: > The steering wheel, refer to page 10
> The Control Center, refer to page 153
> Voice commands, refer to page 158
You can get information about activating the portable phone in the separate Owner's Manual for the Full Preparation Package Cellphone.Making calls with the car phone: BMW Assist calls You can use the car phone via the hands-free system for BMW Assist calls. When the status information "Communication" is displayed in "Car Phone", only BMW Assist calls are possible.
Hands-free system
The hands-free microphone is located on the headliner. The hands-free system is activated whenever you establish or receive a call using: > The buttons on the steering wheel > The Control Center > Voice commands

Operation by voice*
The concept You can operate your portable phone without having to remove your hands from the steering wheel. The system operates on the basis of voice commands that you will learn easily after using them a few times. In addition, you are also supported by instructions or questions.
158
Example: dialing phone number Start the dialog: Press
button on steering wheel.
Voice command {Dial number} e.g. {123 456 7890} {Dial}

Correcting phone number After the last spoken sequence of digits has been repeated by the system, you can delete this sequence of digits. {Correct number}. The digits are deleted.
The command {Correct number} can be repeated as often as you like.
Deleting input {Delete} is used to delete all the digits entered so far.
Voice phone book Operating by voice command requires a per- sonal voice phone book. Depending on the equipment, the entries are either transferred from the memory of your portable phone or they must be entered independently. In this case, it is not possible to use voice command either to call phone numbers stored in the portable phone or to store new numbers.
Adjusting volume You can adjust the volume for the instructions from the system:
Turn the button during an instruction to select the desired volume. This volume for the instructions is maintained, even if the other audio sources are set to mini- mum volume. The setting for the remote control currently in use is stored.

TeleService , BMW Assist
TeleService TeleService supports you when communicat- ing with a BMW center. The built-in car phone can be used to transmit data regarding the ser- vice status of your vehicle or regarding legally mandated inspections directly to your BMW center. This is the same data that is also stored for CBS Condition Based Service in the master key. Your BMW center can then contact you, and you can make an appointment that suits you while you are still on the road. Your advan- tage here is that your BMW center can prepare in advance for the required maintenance work. The functions of TeleService are country-spe- cific and depend on your contract: the data regarding the service status of your vehicle or regarding legally mandated inspections is transmitted on a country-specific basis either automatically before they fall due or during your calls to the BMW center. Your BMW center will be glad to provide more detailed information.
Requirements The installed car phone is logged on to a porta- ble telephone network. This network must be capable of transmitting the services. To transmit position data, the vehicle must be able to determine the current position. This is displayed on the Control Display. In order to enable and update TeleService or BMW Assist, a GPS signal must be present.
Enabling TeleService or BMW Assist For you to be able to use the services of TeleService or BMW Assist, these must be enabled. To do this, leave the ignition key in position 1 during the entire process. Control Center, for principle details, refer to page 16. 1. Press
button.
This opens the start menu.
BMW Assist BMW Assist provides you with other services in addition to TeleService. For example, the posi- tion data of your vehicle can be transferred to the BMW Assist response center if an emer- gency call* has been initiated. Many functions of BMW Assist depend on the individually agreed contract. Data transmission, e.g. of the CBS Condition Based Service, dif- fers from country to country. The subscriber agreement must be completed successfully before using the BMW Assist ser- vices.
