Things to remember when driving

Things to remember when driving
Break-in period
Moving parts need breaking-in time to adjust to
each other. Please follow the instructions below
in order to achieve the optimal service life and
economy of operation for your vehicle.
Engine and differential
Up to 1,250 miles/2,000 km:
Attempt to vary both engine and vehicle
speeds, but refrain from exceeding an engine
speed of 4,500 rpm or a driving speed of
100 mph or 160 km/h.
Always obey all official speed limits.
Avoid full-throttle operation and use of the
transmission's kick-down mode.
Once you have driven 1,250 miles/2,000 km,
the engine and vehicle speeds can be gradually
increased.
Tires
Due to technical factors associated with their
manufacture, tires do not achieve their full trac-
tion potential until after an initial break-in
period. Therefore, drive reservedly during the
first 200 miles/300 km.
Brake system
Brakes require an initial break-in period of
approx. 300 miles/500 km to achieve optimized
contact and wear patterns between brake pads
and rotors. Drive with caution during this break-
in period.
Clutch
The function of the clutch reaches its optimal
level only after a distance driven of approx.
300 miles/500 km. During this break-in period,
engage the clutch gently.
Following part replacement
The same break-in procedures should be
observed if any of the components mentioned above have to be renewed in the course of the
vehicle's operating life.
General driving notes
Closing the luggage compartment lid
Operate the vehicle only when the lug-
gage compartment lid is completely
closed. Otherwise, exhaust fumes could enter
the interior of the vehicle.<
If special circumstances make it absolutely nec-
essary to drive with the luggage compartment
lid open:
1.Close all windows and the glass sunroof.
2.Increase the air flow rate of the automatic
climate control considerably, refer to
page91.
Hot exhaust system
As in all vehicles equipped with a catalytic
converter, extremely high temperatures
are generated in this vehicle. Do not remove the
heat shields installed adjacent to various sec-
tions of the exhaust system, and never apply
undercoating to them. When driving, standing
at idle and while parking, take care to avoid pos-
sible contact between the hot exhaust system
and any highly flammable materials such as hay,
leaves, grass, etc. Such contact could lead to a
fire, with the risk of serious personal injuries and
property damage.<
Portable phone in the vehicle
BMW discourages the use of mobile
communications devices, e.g. portable
phones, inside the vehicle without a direct con-
nection to an outside antenna. Otherwise, the
vehicle electronics and mobile communication
device can influence one another. In addition,
there is no assurance that the radiation which
results from transmission will be dissipated
from the vehicle interior.<

Safety notes
For your own safety
A car phone makes life more convenient in
many ways, and can even save lives in an emer-
gency. While you should consult your portable
phone's separate Owner's Manual for a detailed
description of safety precautions and informa-
tion, we request that you direct your particular
attention to the following:
Adjustments
Only make entries when the traffic situa-
tion allows you to do so. Do not hold the
portable phone in your hand while you are driv-
ing; use the hands-free system instead. If you
do not observe this precaution, your being dis-
tracted can endanger vehicle occupants and
other road users.
BMW discourages the use of portable phones
or other mobile communications devices inside
the vehicle without a direct connection to an
outside antenna. Otherwise, interferences
between vehicle electronics systems and the
mobile communication device cannot be ruled
out. Moreover, there is no guarantee that the
radiation generated when such devices are
transmitting will be dissipated out of the vehi-
cle's interior.<
Care instructions
You can find what you need to know about car-
ing for your portable phone in the separate Car-
ing for your vehicle brochure and in the portable
phone Owner's Manual.
Operating options
You can operate the portable phone* using:
>The steering wheel, refer to page10
>iDrive, refer to page153>Voice commands, refer to page156
You can get information about activating the

for the Full Preparation Package Cellphone.

BMW Assist calls
You can use the car phone via the hands-free
system for BMW Assist calls.
When the status information "BMW Assist" or
"BMW Service" is displayed in "Communica-
tion", only BMW Assist calls are possible.
It may not be possible to establish a telephone
connection using the portable phone while a
connection is being established to BMW Assist
or while a call to BMW Assist is already in
progress. If this happens, you must unpair the
portable phone and the vehicle if you wish to
place a call with the portable phone.
Hands-free system
The hands-free microphone is located on the
headliner.
The hands-free system is activated whenever
you establish or receive a call using:

Correcting phone numbers
After the last spoken sequence of digits has
been repeated by the system, you can delete
this sequence of digits.
The command {Correct number} can be
repeated as often as you like.
Deleting input
{Delete} is used to delete all the digits entered
so far.
Voice phone book
Operating by voice command requires a per-
sonal voice phone book.
The entries must be made by speaking them
out loud and they are independent from your
portable phone's memory. This means that it is
not possible to use voice commands to call
phone numbers stored in the portable phone or
to store new numbers there.
