2.Select "Channels" and press the controller.
3.Select the desired station.
4.Select "STORE" and press the controller.
The list of stored stations appears in the

High Definition Radio*
Many stations transmit both analog and digital
signals. You can receive these stations digitally
and in improved sound quality.
Activating and deactivating digital
radio reception
iDrive, for principle details, refer to page16.
1.Press the button to open the start
menu.
2.Move the controller toward "Entertain-
ment".

ler.

5.Select "HD" and press the controller.
The reception of digital stations is activated.
"HD" is shown in the status line when a station
is received digitally.
With some stations the digital signals are not
transmitted simultaneously with the analog sig-
nals. If you are in an area in which the selected
station is not continuously received digitally,
playback switches between analog and digital
reception. This can result in repetitions or inter-
ruptions. In this case it may be advisable to
deactivate digital radio reception.
Displaying additional information
With the digital stations, additional information
on the current track is displayed, e.g. the name
of the album or the artist.
Select the channel currently being played and
press the controller.
"HD" must be shown in the status line
and a digital station received.<

Getting started
Inserting mobile phone
If you insert or remove the mobile phone during
a call, the call may be interrupted depending on
the mobile phone model.
1.Remove the protective cap from the mobile
phone's antenna connector if necessary, so
that the mobile phone can engage in the
snap-in adapter.
2.Push the mobile phone downward toward
the electrical connections, arrow1, and
press forward, arrow2, until it engages.
The battery is charged starting from radio ready
state of the vehicle, refer to charge indicator on
mobile phone.
Removing mobile phone
To remove mobile phone, depending on model:
>Press the button.
>Push the button upward.
Logging on mobile phone in
vehicle
To log your mobile phone onto the vehicle, you
need a special Bluetooth passkey. This is
included in the information kit.
The following prerequisites must be met:
>The ignition is switched on.
>The mobile phone is ready for operation.
>The Bluetooth connections in the vehicle
and the mobile phone are activated.
>Depending on the mobile phone model,
certain presets are required on the mobile
phone, e.g. detecting, connecting or cou-
pling Bluetooth unit, refer to the operating
instructions of your mobile phone.
Only log on the mobile phone with the
vehicle stopped; otherwise, the passen-
gers and other road user can be endangered
due to a lack of attentiveness on the part of the
driver.<
Preparation with iDrive
iDrive, for principle details, refer to page16.
1.Press the button to open the start
menu.
2.Move the controller toward "Settings".

After mounting
1.Tighten the lug bolts in a diagonal pattern.
To ensure safety, always have the
lug bolts checked with a calibrated
torque wrench as soon as possible to
ensure that they are tightened to the speci-
fied torque. The tightening torque is
100lbft/140Nm.<
2.Reverse the removal sequence when stor-
ing the wheel and tools in the vehicle.
3.Check and correct the tire inflation pressure
at the earliest opportunity.
Protect valve stems and valve stem
seal caps from dirt and contamina-
tion. Dirt in valve stems is a frequent source
of gradual air loss.<
4.Reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor, refer to
page90, or reset the Tire Pressure Monitor,
refer to page92.
5.Replace the damaged tire as soon as possi-
ble and have the new wheel/tire balanced.
Driving with spare tire
On certain wheel-tire combinations, the
size of the spare tire differs from that of
the rest of the tires. The spare tire is fully capa-
ble of running in all load and speed ranges.
However, to recreate the original conditions,
the tire should be replaced as soon as possi-
ble.<
Vehicle battery
Maintenance
The battery is 100 % maintenance-free, i.e., the
electrolyte will last for the life of the battery
when the vehicle is operated in a temperate cli-
mate. Your BMW center will be happy to advise
you on all questions concerning the battery.
Charging battery
Charge the battery in the vehicle only via the
terminals in the engine compartment and with
the engine off. Connections, refer to Jump
starting on page213.
Battery switch
Before storing the vehicle for an extended
period of several weeks or more, slide the bat-
tery switch located behind the trim panel on the
right side of the luggage compartment to OFF.
This reduces the current flow from the battery
for the period during which the vehicle remains
parked. A message is shown on the Info Dis-
play. Please take note of the supplementary
information provided on the Control Display.
Disposal
Have old batteries disposed of following
replacement at your BMW center or bring
them to a collection point. Maintain the battery
in an upright position for transport and storage.
Always secure the battery to prevent it from tip-
ping over during transport.<
Power failure
After a temporary interruption in electrical
power, the functioning of some equipment may
be limited and must be reinitialized. Individual
settings are also lost and must be updated
again:
>Seat, mirror, and steering wheel memory
The positions must be stored again, refer to
page46.
>Time and date
These must be reset, refer to page84.
>Radio
Stations must be stored again, refer to
page158.
>Navigation system
You must wait until it becomes operational
again, refer to Inserting navigation CDs/
DVDs on page130.
