Your individual vehicle
On purchasing your BMW, you have
decided in favor of a model with individual-
ized equipment and features. This Owner's
Manual describes the entire array of
options and equipment available with a
specific BMW model.
Please bear in mind that the manual may
contain information on accessories and
equipment that you have not specified for
your own vehicle. Sections describing
options and special equipment are marked
by asterisks

to assist you in identifying
possible differences between the descrip-
tions in this manual and your own vehicle's
equipment.
Should your BMW be equipped with fea-
tures or accessories not described in this
Owner's Manual, please consult the
enclosed Supplementary Owner's Man-
ual(s).
Editorial notice
BMW pursues a policy of continuous,
ongoing development that is conceived to
ensure that our vehicles continue to
embody the highest quality and safety
standards combined with advanced, state-
of-the-art technology.
For this reason, the features described in
this Owner's Manual may differ from those

sions be entirely ruled out. You are there-
fore asked to appreciate that no claims can

Maintenance and repair
Advanced technology, e.g. the use of
modern materials and high-perfor-
mance electronics, requires specially
adapted maintenance and repair methods.
Therefore, only have corresponding work
on your BMW carried out by a BMW center
or a workshop that works according to
BMW repair procedures with correspond-
ingly trained personnel. If work is carried
out improperly there is a danger of conse-
quential damage and the related safety
risks.

mance when installed on your vehicle.
BMW warrants these parts to be free from
defects in material and workmanship.

age resulting from installation of parts and

used on a BMW safely and without risk to
either the vehicle, its operation, or its occu-
pants.
