Driving stability control
systems
In contrast to the descriptions in the Owner's
Manual for the BMW Z4, your BMW Z4 M Road-
ster/Z4 M Coupe does not feature Dynamic
Traction Control DTC.
Dynamic Stability Control DSC
DSC prevents slip at the drive wheels while
starting off and accelerating the vehicle. DSC
also recognizes unstable vehicle conditions,
such as fishtailing or nose-diving. In these
cases, and subject to physical limits, DSC helps
to keep the vehicle on a steady course by
reducing engine speed and by applying brakes
at individual wheels.
The laws of physics cannot be repealed
even with DSC. It will always be the
driver's responsibility to drive in a manner that
matches road conditions. Therefore, do not
limit the additional safety margin by practicing
risky driving.<
Deactivating DSC
Press the button; the DSC indicator lamp in the
instrument cluster lights up. No more interven-
tions to increase stability and forward momen-
tum are carried out.
To enhance vehicle stability, reactivate DSC as
soon as possible.
Activating DSC
Press the button briefly; the indicator lamp goes
out in the instrument cluster.
Checking
The indicator lamp flashes:
DSC controls the drive forces and
brake forces.
The indicator lamp is lit:
DSC is deactivated.
Flat Tire Monitor FTM*
In contrast to the descriptions in the Owner's
Manual for the BMW Z4, your BMW Z4 M Road-
ster/Z4 M Coupe is not equipped with Run-Flat
Tires. You should therefore observe the follow-
ing when you receive a flat tire warning.
Flat tire warning
The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up in red. A signal also
sounds. There is a flat tire or substantial
loss of tire pressure.
1.Reduce speed and pull the vehicle over
carefully. Avoid strong braking and steering
maneuvers.
2.Determine which tire is damaged. To do
this, check the tire inflation pressure using
the M Mobility System, refer to Restoring
tire inflation pressure on page33.
3.Use the M Mobility System to repair the flat
tire, refer to page31.
Tire Pressure Monitor TPM*
In contrast to the descriptions in the Owner's
Manual for the BMW Z4, your BMW Z4 M Road-
ster/Z4 M Coupe is not equipped with Run-Flat
Tires. Therefore, note the following if the sys-
tem warns of low tire inflation pressure.

Warning of low tire inflation pressure
The warning lamp lights up in yellow. A
signal also sounds. There is a flat tire or
a significant loss of tire pressure in one
or more tires.
1.Reduce speed and pull the vehicle over
carefully. Avoid strong braking and steering
maneuvers.
2.Identify the damaged wheel or wheels. To
do this, check the tire inflation pressure
using the M Mobility System, refer to
Restoring tire inflation pressure on page33.
If the damaged wheel cannot be iden-
tified, contact your BMW center.<
3.Use the M Mobility System to repair the flat
tire, refer to page31.
Have the damaged tire replaced at the BMW
center or at a workshop that works according to
BMW repair procedures with correspondingly
trained personnel.
Power steering
In contrast to the descriptions in the Owner's
Manual for the BMW Z4, your BMW Z4 M Road-
ster/Z4 M Coupe is equipped with hydraulic
power steering.

Coupe: access to onboard tool kit
1.Turn the quick-release fastener counter-
clockwise.
2.Pull out the cover.
When reinstalling the cover, make sure
that its tabs are inserted into the corre-
sponding cut-outs in the cargo bay trim panel.
M Mobility System
Repairing a flat tire
To repair a flat tire, an M Mobility System is pro-
vided in your BMW Z4 M Roadster/Z4 M Coupe.
Using this system you can apply a sealant to the
inside of the tire, seal off the damaged area,
restore the tire inflation pressure and then con-
tinue driving.
Safety measures in the event of a flat:
Park the vehicle as far as possible from
passing traffic and on solid ground. Switch on
the hazard warning flashers.
Lock the steering wheel so that the wheels are
facing straight ahead. Apply the parking brake
and engage first or reverse gear. Have all vehi-
cle occupants get out of the vehicle and ensure
that they remain outside the immediate area in a
safe place, such as behind a guardrail.
If a warning triangle

lamp
* is r e q u ir e d , s et i t up o n t h e ro a d s id e a t a n
appropriate distance from the rear of the vehi-
cle. Comply with all national safety guidelines
and regulations.<
Preparation
If possible, do not remove foreign bodies which
have penetrated the tire.
