ers, bicycle rack.▷Keep sensors clean and free from ice.
For cleaning: do not spray the sensors with
high-pressure cleaners for an extended period
of time and maintain a distance of at least
30 cm, 12 in.
Switching on/off
Automatic switching on While the engine is running, engage selector
lever position R.
Automatic switching off when moving forwards
The system switches off when a certain dis‐
tance or speed is exceeded.

Display
Audible warning signals An intermittent sound indicates position of an
object as the vehicle approaches it. For in‐
stance, if an object is identified to the rear left of the vehicle, the warning signal sounds from
the rear left loudspeaker.
The shorter the distance to an object be‐
comes, the shorter the intervals become.
If the distance to a detected object is less than
approximately 25 cm, 10 in, a continuous tone
sounds.
With front PDC: if there are objects in front of
and behind the vehicle, an alternating continu‐
ous tone sounds.
Volume control It is possible to set the ratio between the vol‐
ume of the PDC acoustic signal and the vol‐
ume of the Entertainment.1."Multimedia", "Radio" or "Settings"2."Sound"3."Volume settings"4."PDC"5.Turn the Controller until the desired set‐
ting is reached.6.Press the Controller.
The setting is saved for the currently used pro‐
file.
Visual warning
When the vehicle is approaching an object it
will be shown on the Control Display. Objects
that are further away from the vehicle will ap‐
pear on the Control Display before an acoustic
signal is given.
A display is superimposed as soon as PDC is
activated.
Recording range of sensors is shown in col‐
ours green, yellow and red.
If the reversing camera image is displayed, it is
possible to change over to PDC:
"Rear view camera"
System limits

General driving information
Closing the boot lid WARNING
An open boot lid projects beyond the ve‐
hicle, and in the event of an accident, braking
or avoidance manoeuvres, it can endanger ve‐ hicle occupants and other road users, or dam‐
age the vehicle. There is also the danger of ex‐
haust fumes entering the interior of the
vehicle. Danger of injury or damage to prop‐
erty. Do not drive with the boot lid open.◀
If there is no alternative to driving with the tail‐
gate open:▷Close all windows and the Glass Roof.▷Turn up the blower to a high output level.▷Maintain moderate speed.
Hot exhaust system
WARNING
During driving, high temperatures can be
generated under the body, for example be‐
cause of the exhaust system. If flammable ma‐
terials, for example leaves of grass, come into
contact with hot parts of the exhaust system,
these materials can catch fire. Danger of injury
or damage to property.
Never remove the heat shields fitted here, or
apply underseal to them. Make sure that when driving, idling or parking, no flammable materi‐
als can come into contact with hot vehicle
parts. Do not touch the hot exhaust system.◀
Radio signals WARNING
Certain vehicle functions may be affec‐
ted by interference from high-frequency radio
signals. Such signals are output from a series
of transmission systems, for example, from air
traffic beacons or relay stations for mobile tele‐
communications.
We recommend you consult a Service Partner
or a qualified specialist workshop should you
experience any difficulties.◀
Mobile communication equipment WARNING
The vehicle's electronics and mobile
radio devices can interfere. The transmission
operation of mobile radio devices generates
radiation. Danger of injury or damage to prop‐
erty. If possible, only use mobile radio devices,
e.g. mobile telephones, in the interior with di‐
rect connection to an external antenna to ex‐
clude mutual interference and to dissipate the
radiation from the vehicle's interior.◀
Aquaplaning
On wet or slushy roads, a wedge of water can
form between the tyres and the road.
This situation, known as aquaplaning, means
that the tyre can actually lose contact com‐
pletely with the road surface and the vehicle
can neither be steered nor the brakes properly
applied.
Wading ATTENTION
Driving through excessively deep water
too fast can result in water entering the engine
compartment, electrical system or transmis‐
sion. Danger of damage to property. When
driving through water, do not exceed the maxi‐
mum specified water depth and maximum
fording speed.◀
Only if the water is calm and only up to a water
depth of max. 25 cm, approximately 9.8 inches
and at this depth drive no faster than walking
speed up to 5 km/h, approximately 3 mph.
Safe braking Your vehicle is equipped with ABS as standard.Seite 163Driving precautionsDriving hints163

Intelligent emergency call
Principle This system can be used for sending an emer‐
gency call in emergency situations.
General Press the SOS button in an emergency only.
Even if no emergency call through BMW is
possible, in some cases an emergency call may still be set up to a public emergency call
number. This depends on factors such as the
specific mobile telephone network and the na‐
tional regulations.
For technical reasons, it might not be possible
to make an emergency call in highly adverse
conditions.
