Notes on the Owner's Manual

We have made every effort to ensure that you are able to find what you need in this Owner's Manual as quickly as possible. The fastest way to find certain topics is by using the detailed index at the end. If you wish to gain only an initial overview of your vehicle, you will find this in the first chapter. The detailed table of contents is intended to stimulate your interest and encourage you to read the remainder of the manual.

Should you wish to sell your BMW at some time in the future, please remember to pass the Owner's Manual on to the new owner – the manual represents a legally-required element of the vehicle.

If you have additional questions, your BMW center will be glad to advise you.

The individual vehicle

On buying your BMW, you have decided in favor of a model with individualized equipment and features. This Owner's Manual describes all models and equipment that BMW offers within the same group.

We hope you will understand that equipment and features are included which you might not have chosen for your vehicle. Any differences can easily be identified, since all optional accessories and special equipment are

marked with an asterisk If your BMW features equipment which

is not described in this Owner's Manual (a car radio or telephone, for instance), Supplementary Owner's Manuals are enclosed. We ask you to read these manuals as well.

BMW pursues a policy of continuous, ongoing development which is conceived to ensure that our vehicles continue to embody the highest quality standards combined with advanced, state-of-the-art technology. For this reason, it is possible that the features described in this Owner's Manual could differ from those on your vehicle. Nor can errors and omissions be entirely ruled out. You are therefore asked to appreciate that no legal claims can be entertained on the basis of the data, illustrations or descriptions in this manual.

For your own safety

Use unleaded gasoline only. Fuels

containing up to and including 10% ethanol or other oxygenates with up to 2.8% oxygen by weight (i.e. 15% MTBE or 3% methanol plus an equivalent amount of co-solvent) will not void the applicable warranties respecting defects in materials or workmanship. Field experience has indicated significant differences in fuel quality (i.e. volatility, composition or additives, etc.) among gasolines offered for sale in the United States and Canada. The use of poor-quality fuels may result in driveability, starting and stalling problems especially under certain environmental conditions such as high ambient temperature and high altitude. Should you encounter driveability problems that you suspect could be related to the fuel you are using, we recommend that you respond by switching to a recognized high-quality brand. Failure to comply with these recommendations may result in unscheduled maintenance. Follow the relevant safety rules when

you are handling gasoline.

Important safety information!

For your own safety, use genuine parts and accessories approved by BMW. When you purchase accessories tested and approved by BMW and Original BMW Parts, you simultaneously acquire the assurance that they have been thoroughly tested by BMW to ensure optimum performance when installed on your vehicle. BMW warrants these parts to be free from defects in material and workmanship. BMW will not accept any liability for damage resulting from installation of parts and accessories not approved by BMW. BMW cannot test every product made by other manufacturers to verify if it can be used on a BMW safely and without risk to either the vehicle, its operation, or its occupants. Original BMW Parts, BMW Accessories and other products approved by BMW, together with professional advice on using these items, are available from all BMW centers.

Installation and operation of non-BMW approved accessories such as alarms, radios, amplifiers, radar detectors, wheels, suspension components, brake dust shields, telephones (including operation of any portable cellular phone from within the vehicle without using an externally mounted antenna) or transceiver equipment (such as CB, walkietalkie, ham radio or similar) may cause extensive damage to the vehicle, compromise its safety, interfere with the vehicle's electrical system or affect the validity of the BMW Limited Warranty. Consult your BMW center for

additional information.

Maintenance, replacement, or

repair of the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any automotive repair establishment or individual using any certified auto-

motive part.

Symbol on vehicle parts

Indicates that you should consult

the relevant section of this Owner's Manual for information on a particular part or assembly.

For your own safety

The following only applies to vehicles owned and operated in the US.

Refueling

25n

367de391

Before filling the tank, switch off

the engine, as otherwise fuel cannot flow into the tank and the "Service Engine Soon" warning lamp may come on, refer to page 22.<

Open the fuel filler cap: To open the fuel filler door, turn the fuel filler cap counterclockwise and remove the cap. Place the filler cap in the bracket attached to the fuel filler door.

Open the filler cap carefully. If you

do not, fuel could spray out.<

To unlock the fuel filler door manually in the event of an electrical malfunction of the central locking system, refer to page 157.

When refueling, insert the filler nozzle completely into the filler pipe. Pulling the nozzle out of the pipe during refueling

> results in premature shutoff > and will reduce the effect of the vapor

recovery system.

If the filler nozzle is operated correctly, the fuel tank is full when it shuts off the first time.

Tank capacity, approx. 13.5 gal. (51 liters), incl. a reserve capacity of approx. 2.1 gal. (8 liters).

Close the fuel filler cap: Position the cap on the neck. Turn the cap clockwise to the stop.

Close the filler cap carefully after

refueling until a "click" is heard. While closing, be sure not to squeeze the strap which is fastened to the cap. A loose or missing cap will activate the "Service Engine Soon" lamp.<

Close the fuel filler door.

When handling fuels, comply with

all of the applicable safety precautions and regulations pertaining to fuels. Never carry spare fuel containers in your vehicle. Whether they are empty or full, these containers can leak, cause an explosion, or lead to fire in the event of a collision.<

The inflation pressures are indicated on a label attached to the B-pillar behind the driver's door (visible with door open).

Check tire pressures

All pressure specifications are indicated in psi (kilopascal [kPa]) with the tires at ambient temperature (refer also to the next page).

Check tire inflation pressures

regularly – at least every two weeks and before every extended journey. Incorrect tire pressure can otherwise lead to tire damage and accidents. Check the inflation pressure of the spare tire as well. Refer to the following table and to page 110.<

Comply with tire approval specifications

The inflation pressures in the table apply to tires made by BMW-approved manufacturers. Your BMW center is familiar with these pressures. Higher pressures may be specified for tires made by other manufacturers. You will find a list of approved tires beginning on page 116.

Your vehicle is equipped with tires that meet both US standards and European standards. We recommend the exclusive use of BMW-approved tires.
