1.Push a screwdriver from the left under
the lamp and lever up the lamp to the
right
2.Turn the bulb holder 905 to the left and
remove
3.Remove and replace the bulb.
Light-emitting diodes LEDs
Light-emitting diodes installed behind
translucent lenses serve as the light source
for many of the controls and displays in
your vehicle. These light-emitting diodes,
which operate using a concept similar to
that applied in conventional lasers, are offi-
cially designated as Class 1 light-emitting
diodes.
Do not remove the covers, and never
stare into the unfiltered light several
hours, as irritation of the retina could
result.<
Changing a wheel
Your BMW is equipped with run-flat tires as
standard. An immediate wheel change in
the event of a flat tire is therefore no longer
required.
You will recognize run-flat tires by a circular
symbol containing the letters RSC on the
side of the tire, refer to Run-flat tires on
page 167.
If you switch from summer to winter tires,
or vice versa, use only run-flat tires, as in
the event of a flat there is no spare tire
available. Your BMW center will be glad to
advise you.
Also refer to New wheels and tires,
page 168.
Car jacking points
The jacking points for the car jack are
located in the positions shown.
You can obtain a suitable car jack as
an accessory at your BMW center.<
Battery
Battery care
The battery is 100 % maintenance-free, i.e.,
the electrolyte will last for the life of the bat-
tery when the vehicle is operated in a tem-
perate climate.
Your BMW center will be glad to advise in
all matters concerning the battery.
Charging battery
Only charge the battery in the vehicle via
the terminals in the engine compartment
with the engine switched off. For the con-
nections, refer to Jump-starting on
page 184.
Disposal
Have old batteries disposed of by
your BMW center or hand them in to a
recycling center. Maintain the battery in an
upright position for transport and storage.
Always restrain the battery to prevent it
from tipping over during transport.<
Power cut
After a temporary power cut, e.g. with a
discharged battery, the features of some
equipment are limited and it has to be rein-
itialized. Individual settings are also lost
and have to be updated:

Replacing components
182 >Active steering
The system is deactivated and has to be
initialized, refer to page 80. Until then,
greater steering wheel movement is
required
>Seat, mirror and steering wheel
memory
The position must be newly stored,
refer to page 44
>Time and date
The settings must be updated, refer to
page 73
>Radio
Radio stations have to be stored again,
refer to page 132
>Navigation system
Wait to see what happens with the
functional capability, refer to page 122.
Fuses
Never attempt to repair a blown fuse,
and do not replace a defective fuse
with a substitute of another color or amper-
age rating, as this could lead to overloading
of the wiring, ultimately resulting in a fire in
the vehicle.<
Information on the fuse assignment is
located below the bracket for the onboard
tool kit, see below.
In glove compartment
1.Press the button on the back in the cen-
ter of partition 1 and pull out the parti-
tion upwards, arrow 2
2.Press the coupling downwards,
arrow 3, and fold the lid 4 forwards.

Emergency call*
Conditions for an emergency call:
>Ignition key as of position 1
>The car phone is logged on to a
portable telephone network
>The emergency call system is operable.
Coupe: emergency call button.
Convertible: emergency call button.
Initiating an emergency call
1.To open the protective cover of the
emergency call button:
Briefly press the protective cover
2.Press the emergency call switch for
at least 2 seconds.
The indicator lamp in the button lights
up. As soon as the voice connection to
the BMW Assist response center has
been established, the indicator lamp
flashes.
If conditions allow, remain in the vehicle
until the connection has been established.
You will then be able to provide a detailed
description of the situation.
If the current location of your vehicle can be
determined with vehicles with an activated
BMW Assist, it will be transmitted to the
BMW Assist response center.
Activating BMW Assist, refer to page 155.
If the indicator lamp flashes, but you are
unable to hear the BMW Assist response
center through the hands-free system, this
could indicate, for instance, that the hands-
free system is no longer operational. How-
ever, the BMW Assist response center may
then still be able to hear you.
Under certain conditions, an emergency
call is started automatically immediately
after a severe accident. The automatic
emergency call is not affected by the but-
ton being pressed.
For technical reasons, the emergency
call cannot be guaranteed under
unfavorable conditions.<

Giving and receiving assistance

Warning triangle*
The warning triangle can be found in the
luggage compartment on the left side.
Comply with legal requirements
requiring you to carry a hazard warn-
ing triangle in the vehicle.<
First-aid kit*
The first-aid kit is located in the filler ele-
ment of the rear seat backrest.
1.Press the button downwards
2.Remove the filler element in a forward
direction
3.Remove the first-aid kit.To refit the filler element, insert the
two steps in the strip and press back
the filler element. Make sure that you do
not damage the rear seat upholstery.<
Some of the articles contained in the
first-aid kit have a limited service life.
For this reason, check the expiration dates
of each of the items regularly and replace
any whose expiration dates have passed.
You can find replacements in any phar-
macy.
Comply with legal requirements requiring
you to carry a first-aid kit in the vehicle.<
Roadside Assistance*
The Roadside Assistance of the BMW
Group offers you breakdown assistance
around the clock, including on weekends
and public holidays.
The phone numbers of the Roadside Assis-
tance in your home country can be found in
the BMW Dealer Directory.
In the case of vehicles with BMW Assist or
TeleService, you can call the Roadside
Assistance of the BMW Group directly for
breakdown assistance via the Control Cen-
ter, refer to page 156.
Jump-starting
When your battery is discharged, you can
use two jumper cables to start your BMW
with power from the battery in a second
vehicle. You can also use the same method
to help start another vehicle. Use only
jumper cables with fully-insulated clamp
handles.
To avoid the risk of potentially fatal
injury, always avoid all contact with
electrical components while the engine is
running. Carefully adhere to the following
sequence, both to prevent damage to one
or both vehicles, and to guard against pos-
sible personal injuries.<
