If you use gasoline with this minimum AKI rating, 
the engine may produce knocking sounds when 
starting at high external temperatures. This has 
no effect on the engine life.
The use of poor quality fuels may result in 
harmful engine deposits or damage. Addi-
tionally, problems relating  to drivability, starting 
and stalling, especially under certain environ-
mental conditions such as high ambient temper-
atures and high altitudes, may occur.
If drivability problems are encountered, we rec-
ommend switching to a high quality gasoline 
brand and a higher octane grade - AKI number - 
for a few tankfuls. To avoid harmful engine 
deposits, it is highly recommended to purchase 
gasoline from BP or Top Tier retailers.
Failure to comply with these recommendations 
may result in a need  for unscheduled mainte-
nance. <

Vehicle equipment
In this chapter, all production, country, and 
optional equipment that is offered in the model 
range is described. Equipment is also described 
that is not available because of, for example, 
selected options or count ry version. This also 
applies to safety related functions and systems.
Tire inflation pressures
Information for your safety
It is not merely the tires' service life, but also 
driving comfort and, to a great extent, driving 
safety that depend on the condition of the tires 
and the maintenance of the specified tire pres-
sure.
Checking pressure
Check the tire inflatio n pressure regularly 
and correct it, if nece ssary: at least twice a 
month and before starting  long trips. If you fail 
to observe this precaution you may be driving 
on tires with incorrect tire pressures, a condition 
that can not only compromise your vehicle's 
driving stability, but also  lead to tire damage and 
the risk of an accident. Do not drive with 
deflated, i.e. flat tires, except when using run-
flat tires. A flat tire  will seriously impair your 
vehicle's handling and braking response. 
Attempts to drive on a flat  tire can lead to loss of 
control over the vehicle. <
Check the tire inflation pressures only on cold 
tires. This means after a maximum of 1.25 miles/
2 km driving or when the vehicle has been 
parked for at least 2 hours. When tires are warm, 
the tire inflation pressure is higher. After adjusting the tire inflation pressure, 
reinitialize the Flat  Tire Monitor, page 75, 
or reset the Tire Pressure Monitor, page 78.<
Pressure specifications
The tables below provide all the correct inflation 
pressures for the specifie d tire sizes at ambient 
temperature.
The tire inflation pressures apply to the 
tire sizes approved and the tire brands 
recommended by the manufacturer of your 
MINI. Your MINI dealer will be glad to advise 
you. <
For correct identification  of the right tire infla-
tion pressures, observe the following:
> Tire sizes for your vehicle
> Maximum allowable driving speed
Tire inflation pressures for driving up to 
100 mph or 160 km/h
For normal driving up to 100 mph or 160 km/h 
and to achieve optimum dr iving comfort, adjust 
pressures to the respective tire inflation pres-
sures listed on the foll owing pages in the col-
umns for traveling speeds up to a maximum of 
100 mph or 160 km/h.
These tire inflation pre ssures can also be found 
on the driver's side door pillar when the driver's 
door is open.

MINI Paceman:The maximum permitted speed for these 
tire inflation pressures is 100 mph or 
160 km/h. Do not exceed this speed; otherwise, 
tire damage and accidents may occur. <
Tire inflation pressures for driving above 
100 mph or 160 km/h
In order to drive at maximum speeds in 
excess of 100 mph or 160 km/h, adjust 
pressures to the respective tire inflation pres-
sures listed on the follo wing pages in the col-
umns for traveling speeds including those 
exceeding 100 mph or 160 km/h. Otherwise, 
tire damage and accidents could occur. <
Observe all national and local maximum speed 
limits; otherwise, violat ions of the law could 
occur.

failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of 
performance which all passenger car tires must 
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety 
Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent lev-
els of performance on the laboratory test wheel 
that exceed the minimum required by law.The temperature grade for this tire is 
established for a tire that is properly 
inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, 
underinflation, or excessive loading, either sep-
arately or in combinat ion, can cause heat 
buildup and possible tire failure. <
RSC - run-flat tires
You will recognize run-flat tires by a circular 
symbol containing the letters RSC on the side of 
the tire, page212.
M+S
Winter and all-season tires. 
These have better winter properties than sum-
mer tires.
XL
Designation for specia lly reinforced tires.
Tire condition
Inspect your tires regula rly for tread wear, signs 
of damage and for foreig n objects lodged in the 
tread. Check the tread depth.
Tread depth
The tread depth should  not drop below 0.12 in/
3 mm, although, for exam ple, European legisla-
tion only specifies a  minimum tread depth of 
0.063 in/1.6 mm. At tread depths below 0.12 in/
3 mm there is an increased risk of high-speed 
hydroplaning, even when only small amounts of 
water are present on the road surface.
Winter tires
When winter tires wear down past a tread depth 
of 0.16 in/4 mm, they become perceptibly less  suitable for winter conditions. In the interest of 
safety, new tires should be installed.
Minimum tread depth
Wear indicators in the base of the tread groove 
are distributed around the tire's circumference; 
the letters TWI, for Tread Wear Indicator, on the 
tire's sidewalls identify
 tires that incorporate 
these wear indicators. If the tire tread has been 
driven down to the wear indicators, a tread 
depth of 0.063 in/1.6 mm has been reached.
Tire damage
Driving over rough or damaged road surfaces, as 
well as debris, curbs, and other obstacles can 
cause serious damage to  wheels, tires, and sus-
pension parts. This is more likely to occur with 
low-profile tires, which  provide less cushioning 
between the wheel and the road. Be careful to 
avoid road hazards and reduce your speed, 
especially if your vehicle is equipped with low-
profile tires.
Unusual vibrations encountered during normal 
vehicle operation can indicate tire failure or 
some other vehicle defect . This can, for exam-
ple, be caused by driving over curbs. The same 
applies to any other ab normal road behavior, 
such as pulling severely to the right or left.
In these cases, reduce speed immediately 
and have wheels an d tires thoroughly 
checked. To do so, drive carefully to the nearest 
MINI dealer or a specialized tire shop that has 
specially trained personnel working in accor-
dance with the specifications of the MINI manu-
facturer. If necessary,  have the vehicle towed 
there.

Otherwise, tire damage can be extremely dan-
gerous for vehicle occupants and other road 
users. <
Tire age
The manufacturing date of tires is contained in 
the tire coding: 
DOT ... 1012 means that the tire was manufac-
tured during the 10th week of 2012.
For various reasons, such as the development of 
brittleness, the manufacturer of your MINI rec-
ommends tire replacemen t after no more than 
6 years, regardless of the actual wear of the 
tires.
Run-flat tires
The symbol identifying run-flat tires is a circle 
with the letters RSC on the sidewall.
Run-flat tires comprise  a conditionally self-sup-
porting tire and a special rim. The reinforcement 
in the sidewalls ensures that the tire can con-
tinue to be used subject to certain restrictions, 
even if depressurized.
For information on continui ng to drive with a flat 
tire, refer to Indication of a flat tire, page 76.
New wheels and tires
Have new wheels and tires mounted only 
by your MINI dealer or a specialized tire 
shop that has specially  trained personnel work-
ing in accordance with the specifications of the 
MINI manufacturer. If this work is not carried out  properly, there is a dang
er of subsequent dam-
age and related safety haza rds. Make sure that 
the new wheels are balanced.<
Retreaded tires
The manufacturer of your MINI recom-
mends that you avoid using retreaded 
tires, as this could impair driving safety. The 
causes for this include potentially different tire 
casing structures and often wide variations in 
tire age, which can resu lt in a limited service 
life. <
Correct wheels and tires
The manufacturer of your MINI recom-
mends mounting only wheels and tires 
that it has specifically approved for use on your 
particular model. Although other wheels and 
tires may theoretically have the same dimen-
sions, variations in factors such as manufactur-
ing tolerances can result  in contact between tire 
and bodywork, ultimately  leading to serious 
accidents. The manufacturer of your MINI can-
not evaluate non-approved wheels and tires to 
determine if they are suited for use, and there-
fore cannot ensure the operating safety of the 
vehicle if they are mounted. <
Your MINI dealer will be  glad to inform you 
about the correct wheel an d tire combination for 
your vehicle.
The correct combin ation of wheels and tires is 
also necessary to ensure  reliable operation of 
various vehicle systems  such as ABS and DSC.
To maintain good handling and vehicle 
response, use only tires of a single brand and 
tread configuration. Afte r a tire has been dam-
aged, mount the previous wheel and tire combi-
nation again as soon as possible.
Wheels with Tire Pr essure Monitor TPM 
electronics
When mounting new tires or changing over from 
summer to winter tires, or vice versa, only use 
wheels with TPM electronics; otherwise, the Tire 
Pressure Monitor may not be able to detect a

Notes
Do not use oil additives  as this could result 
in engine damage. <
When choosing oil, make sure that it 
belongs to one of the SAE viscosity classes 
0W-40, 0W-30, 5W-40 an d 5W-30; otherwise, 
malfunctions and damage to the engine may 
result. <
