Battery
Maintenance
The battery is completely maintenance-
free. This means that the original bat-
tery acid will normally last for the ser-
vice life of the battery under moderate
climate conditions. Your BMW center
will be glad to advise you if you have
any questions concerning the battery.
Charging the battery
When charging the battery in the vehi-
cle, leave the engine off at all times.
Connect the charge cables to the termi-
nals in the engine compartment. For
terminal locations, refer to Jump-start-
ing on page
Disposal
After changing the battery, have
the old battery disposed of by
your BMW center or bring it to a recy-
cling point. Maintain the battery in an
upright position for transport and stor-
age. Secure the battery against falling
over in transit.

Power loss
After a temporary power loss, e.g. due
to a discharged battery, some equip-
ment will be limited in its use and will
have to be reinitialized. Individual set-
tings are also lost and must be reset:
> Seat and mirror memory
The position settings must be stored
again, refer to page
> Clock
> Radio
Stations must be reset, refer to the
Owner's Manual for Radio/Onboard
Computer
> Navigation system
The system will not be operable
immediately, refer to the Owner's
Manual for Radio/Onboard Com-
puter.
Fuses
You will find the fuses and information
on their respective allocation in the
glove compartment behind a panel with
two snap clips.
Do not attempt to repair a blown
fuse or replace it with a fuse
having a different color or amperage
rating. To do this could cause a fire in
the vehicle resulting from a circuit over-
load.
