dtmpower.net is a site I found that has the procedure, I can't link you to the site because it degrades our site standing, so I hope it's what you need.

As a side note, I strongly recommend against jump starting modern BMW automobiles due to the possibility of damage to the electronics. AAA almost always has the best intentions, and I am not trying to position blame. But the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
