For your own safetyWarranty
Your vehicle is technically configured for the
operating conditions and registration require‐
ments applying in the country of first delivery
— homologation. If your vehicle is to be oper‐
ated in a different country it might be neces‐
sary to adapt your vehicle to potentially differ‐
ing operating conditions and permit
requirements. If your vehicle does not comply
with the homologation requirements in a cer‐
tain country you cannot lodge warranty claims
for your vehicle there. Further information can
be obtained from your Service Center.
Maintenance and repairs Advanced technology, e.g., the use of modern
materials and high-performance electronics,
requires suitable maintenance and repair
methods.
Therefore, have this work performed only by a
BMW center or a workshop that works accord‐
ing to BMW repair procedures with appropri‐
ately trained personnel.
If this work is not carried out properly, there is
the danger of subsequent damage and related
safety hazards.
Parts and accessories For your own safety, it is recommended that
you use genuine parts and accessories ap‐
proved by BMW. When you purchase accesso‐
ries tested and approved by BMW and Genu‐
ine BMW Parts, you simultaneously acquire
the assurance that they have been thoroughly
tested by BMW to ensure optimum perform‐
ance when installed on your vehicle. BMW
warrants these parts to be free from defects in
material and workmanship. BMW will not ac‐
cept any liability for damage resulting from in‐
stallation of parts and accessories not ap‐
proved by BMW. BMW cannot test every
product made by other manufacturers to verify
if it can be used on a BMW safely and withoutrisk to either the vehicle, its operation, or its
occupants. Genuine BMW Parts, BMW Acces‐
sories and other products approved by BMW,
together with professional advice on using
these items, are available from all BMW cen‐
ters. Installation and operation of non BMW
approved accessories such as alarms, radios,
amplifiers, radar detectors, wheels, suspension
components, brake dust shields, telephones,
including operation of any mobile phone from
within the vehicle without using an externally
mounted antenna, or transceiver equipment,
for instance, CBs, walkie-talkies, ham radios or
similar accessories, may cause extensive dam‐
age to the vehicle, compromise its safety, in‐
terfere with the vehicle's electrical system or
affect the validity of the BMW Limited War‐
ranty. See your BMW center for additional in‐
formation. Maintenance, replacement, or repair
of the emission control devices and systems
may be performed by any automotive repair
establishment or individual using any certified
automotive part.
California Proposition 65 WarningCalifornia laws require us to state the following
warning:
Engine exhaust and a wide variety of automo‐
bile components and parts, including compo‐
nents found in the interior furnishings in a vehi‐
cle, contain or emit chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth
defects and reproductive harm. In addition,
certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain
products of component wear contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other repro‐
ductive harm. Battery posts, terminals and re‐
lated accessories contain lead and lead com‐
pounds. Wash your hands after handling. Used
engine oil contains chemicals that have caused
cancer in laboratory animals. Always protect
your skin by washing thoroughly with soap and

The transmission provides assistance in the following situations:▷Upshifts and downshifts are executed only
when they will result in a feasible combina‐
tion of engine and vehicle speed; thus, for
example, a downshift that would cause the
engine to overrev will not be executed by
the system.▷When the vehicle stops, the transmission
automatically shifts down to first gear.▷Shortly before the vehicle slows down to
below the minimum speed of the gear cur‐
rently engaged, the transmission automati‐
cally shifts down without requiring your in‐
tervention.
Shifting down rapidly: even in manual mode,
you can skip several gears to achieve optimal
acceleration. Do so by pressing the accelerator
past the resistance point.
