Maintenance
Maintain the vehicle regularly to sustain the road
safety, operational reliability and the New Vehi‐
cle Limited Warranty.
Specifications for required maintenance meas‐
ures:▷BMW Maintenance system▷Service and Warranty Information Booklet
for US models▷Warranty and Service Guide Booklet for
Canadian models
If the vehicle is not maintained according to
these specifications, this could result in serious
damage to the vehicle. Such damage is not cov‐
ered by the BMW New Vehicle Limited War‐
ranty.
Data memory
Numerous electronic components in your vehi‐
cle contain data memories that store technical
information on the vehicle condition, events and
faults, either temporarily or permanently. This
technical information generally documents the
state of a component, a module, a system or the
environment.
▷Operating conditions of system compo‐
nents, such as filling levels.▷Status messages from the vehicle and its
individual components, such as wheel rpm/
speed, motion delay, transverse accelera‐
tion.▷Malfunctions and defects in important sys‐
tem components, such as lights and brakes.▷Vehicle responses to special driving situa‐
tions, such as airbag deployment, use of the
stability control systems.▷Ambient conditions, such as the tempera‐
ture.
These data are of a technical nature only and are
used to detect and eliminate faults and to opti‐
mize vehicle functions. Travel profiles of routes
driven with the vehicle cannot be created from
these data. If services are used, for instance in
the event of repairs, service processes, warranty
cases, quality assurance, etc., this technical in‐
formation can be read out from the event and
fault data memories by service personnel, in‐
cluding the manufacturer, using special diagno‐
sis tools. This service personnel can provide you
with more information if needed. After trouble‐
shooting, the information in the fault memory is
cleared or overwritten continuously.
Situations are conceivable during the use of the
vehicle in which these technical data could be‐
come associated with a specific person in com‐
bination with other information, such as an ac‐
cident report, damage to the vehicle, witness
accounts, etc., possibly with the involvement of
an authorized expert.
Additional functions that are contractually
agreed with the customer, such as vehicle lo‐
calization in the event of an emergency, permit
the transfer of certain vehicle data out of the ve‐
hicle.
