Changing a wheel 
Run Flat tires
Your BMW is equipped with Run Flat tires. 
Therefore, the wheel no longer has to be 
changed immediately in the event of a loss 
in inflation pressure.
Run Flat tires are labeled on the sidewall 
with a circular symbol containing the letters 
RSC. Refer to page 80.
BMW recommends that you consult your 
BMW center if you wish to replace the tires 
of your BMW, or change from summer to 
winter tires or vice versa. 
Your BMW center knows how to work with 
Run Flat tires and is equipped with the nec-
essary special tools.
When mounting or replacing summer 
tires with winter tires, or vice versa, 
use only Run Flat tires since no spare 
wheel is available in the event of a flat.<
Jacking points 
The jacking points are located at the posi-
tions indicated in the illustration.
Your BMW center can provide you 
with a suitable jack.<
Battery 
Maintenance
The battery is completely maintenance-
free. This means that the original electro-
lyte will normally last for the service life of 
the battery under moderate climatic condi-
tions.
Please consult your BMW center 
whenever you have any questions 
concerning the battery.<
Indicator lamp 
The indicator lamp for the battery 
charge current lights up:
The battery is no longer being 
charged. The alternator drive belt is defec-
tive or there is a malfunction in the charging 
circuit of the alternator. Please contact the 
nearest BMW center.
If the drive belt is defective, pull over 
and switch off the engine immediately 
to prevent overheating and serious engine 
damage. 
If the onboard supply voltage drops to a 
very low level, increased steering effort 
may also be necessary.<
