Indicator and warning lamps
Technology that monitors itself
Many of the systems of your BMW mon-
itor themselves automatically, both dur-
ing engine starts and while you are driv-
ing. Indicator and warning lamps that
are identified by "
l
" are tested for
proper functioning whenever the igni-
tion key is turned. They each light up
once for different periods of time.
If a fault should occur in one of these
systems, the corresponding lamp does
not go out after the engine is started or
it lights up while the vehicle is moving.
You will see how to react to this below.
Red: Stop immediately
Battery charge current
l
The battery is no longer being
charged. There is a malfunction
of the alternator ribbed V-belt or in the
charging circuit of the alternator. Please
contact the nearest BMW center.
If the ribbed V-belt is defective, do
not continue driving. The engine
could be damaged due to overheating.
If the ribbed V-belt is defective, in-
creased steering effort is also re-
quired.
<
Engine oil pressure
l
Stop vehicle and switch off en-
gine immediately. Check level of
oil in engine, top up as required. If oil
level is correct: Please contact the
nearest BMW center.
Do not continue driving. The en-
gine could be damaged because
of inadequate lubrication.
<
Tire Pressure Control (RDC)
* l
In addition, there is an acousti-
cal warning signal: A tire failure
has occurred. Reduce vehicle speed
immediately and stop the vehicle. Avoid
hard brake applications. Do not over-
steer.
For additional information: Refer to
page 82.
Brake hydraulic system l
If the lamp comes on when the
parking brake is not engaged:
Check the brake fluid level. Before driv-
ing further, be sure to read the notes on
pages 109 and 127.

dian models.

be necessary and brake pedal travel
may be significantly longer.
Please have the system inspected by

0 Steering lock engaged The key can only be inserted and
removed in this position.
After removing the key, turn the steer-
ing wheel slightly to the left or right until
you hear the lock engage.
If the key is not removed, an acoustic
signal chimes after the driver's door has
been opened.
Vehicles with automatic
transmission:
Move the selector lever from position P
only after the engine is running (ignition
key in position 2).
In order to turn the key back to position 0
or to remove it, move the selector lever
into position P first (Interlock).<462de195
1 Steering lock disengaged Turning the steering wheel slightly to
the right or left often makes it easier to
turn the key from 0 to 1.
Individual electrical devices are ready
for operation.2 Ignition onAll electrical equipment and accesso-
ries are available for use.3 Starting the engine
Vehicles with manual
transmission:
Step on the clutch when starting the
vehicle. A lockout prevents the engine
from starting if the clutch is not de-
pressed.c
Before starting>Engage parking brake
>Ensure that the transmission selector
is in "Neutral" (or "Park" if vehicle is
equipped with automatic transmis-
sion)
>Manual transmission: Depress the
clutch pedal
>Automatic transmission: Depress the
footbrake.
Never allow the engine to run with
the vehicle standing in an en-
closed area. The exhaust gases contain
carbon monoxide, an odorless and col-
orless, but highly toxic gas. Breathing
the exhaust gases poses an extreme
health risk, and can lead to uncon-
sciousness and death.
Do not leave the car unattended with
the engine running. An unattended ve-
hicle with a running engine represents a
potential safety hazard.<
>Start the engine. Do not press the
accelerator pedal.

Graphic display
The following information and/or condi-
tions are indicated using symbols, start-
ing with the ignition key position 2, until
the interference has been fixed:
1 Inspect the low-beam and high-beam
headlamps, as well as the side
marker lamps
2 Door open
3 Luggage compartment lid open
4 Check brake and taillamps.
After the completion of a trip and when
the driver's door is opened, an acousti-
cal signal is given for "Lamps on" if the
lamps have not been switched off.462de272
Mode selectionIn ignition key positions 1 and 2, you
can call up information from the on-
board computer using the button in the
turn signal lever. By pressing the button
briefly in the direction of the steering
column, you can call up a new function
for display.
The displays appear in the following
order:
Time, outside temperature, average fuel
consumption, cruising range, average
vehicle speed.
The function that was last selected will
be indicated when the ignition is
switched on.462de222
Set the clockIn ignition key position 1 and 2
To set ahead: Turn the button to the
right.

Onboard computerOutside temperature You can change the units of measure
(6/7) for the outside temperature dis-
play by pressing the right-hand reset
button in the instrument cluster when
the temperature display is active.462us023
Ice warning If the outside temperature sinks to
approx. 37.57 (+ 36), a warning sig-
nal sounds and the display flashes
briefly.
The warning is repeated whenever the
temperature goes to at least 437
(+ 66) and then drops again to 37.57
(+ 36).
The ice warning does not alter the
fact that surface ice can form at
temperatures above 37.57 (+ 36),
e. g. on bridges or shaded road sur-
faces.<
Average fuel consumption If you continue to hold the button on the
turn signal lever, the average fuel con-
sumption last displayed is recalculated
from that point in time.462us007
