ADVICE
FORTHE
BEGINNER
The
tips
in
the
paragraphs
that
follow
are
general
advice
to
help
any
do-it-yourself
BMW
owner
perform
repairs
and
main-
tenance
tasks
more
easily
and
more
professionally
.
Planning
Ahead
Cleanliness
Keeping
things
organized,
neat,
and
clean
is
essential
to
do-
ing
a
good
job
.
When
working
under
the
hood,
fender
covers
will
protect
the
finish
from
scratches
and
other
damage
.
Make
sure
the
car
is
relatively
clean
so
thatdi
rt
under
the
cover
does
not
scratch
the
finish
.
Any
repair
job
will
be
less
troublesome
if
the
parts
are
clean
.
For
cleaning
old
parts,
there
are
many
solvents
and
parts
cleaners
commercially
available
.
For
cleaning
parts
priorto
assembly,
commercially
available
aerosol
cans
of
parts
cleaner
or
brake
cleaner
are
handy
to
use,
and
the
cleaner
will
evaporate
completely
.
WARNING
-
Virtually
all
solvents
used
for
cleaning
parts
are
highly
flammable,
especially
in
aerosol
form
.
Use
wíth
extreme
care
.
Do
not
smoke
.
Do
not
use
these
products
near
any
source
of
heat,
sparksor
flame
.
Let
any
solvent
orcleaning
product
dry
completely
.
Low-
pressure,
dry
compressed
air
is
helpful
if
available
.
Also,
use
only
lint-free
rags
for
cleaning
and
drying
.

If
the
"CHECK
ENGI
NE"
warning
light
comes
on
or
flashes,
it
indicates
that
an
emissions-related
fault
has
occurred
.
Faults
suchas
a
failed
oxygen
sensor
or
a
faultyfuelinjector
can
tum
the
light
on,
causing
the
exhaust
or
evaporative
emissions
to
exceed
a
specified
limit
.
The
engine
can
be
safely
driven
with
the
light
on,
although
the
emission
systems
should
be
checked
assoonas
possible
.
See

for
more
infor-
mation
on
the
Check
Engine
Light
and
the
On-board
diagnostic
system
.
Headlights
and
instrument
panel
illuminationthat
are
dim
or
gradually
getting
dimmer
generally
indicate
a
problem
with
the
battery
or
charging
system
.
The
battery
charge
indicator
light
may
come
on
as
the
lights
are
dimming
.
In
either
case,
theen-
gine
and
accessories
are
running
off
of
the
battery
alone,
and
will
soon
discharge
it
altogether
.
If
possible,
do
not
stop
the
engine
unless
you
have
the
capa-
bility
to
jump
start
¡t
.
There
may
not
be
enough
power
in
the
starting
system
torestart
the
engine
.
Instead,turn
off
as
many
electrical
consumers
as
possible
.
This
will
reduce
the
current
drain
and
will
allow
thecar
to
be
driven
farther
before
you
lose
all
battery
power
.
