About this Owner's
Handbook
We have tried to make all the information in this
Owner's Handbook easy to find. The quickest
access to a specific topic or item is by consult-
ing the detailed alphabetical index at the end.
Consult the first chapter for an initial overview of
your car.
When the time comes to sell your BMW, please
remember to hand over this Owner's Hand-
book; it is an important part of the vehicle.
Additional sources of information
If you have any queries, BMW Service will be
glad to advise you.
Information on BMW, e.g. on technical aspects,
can also be found on the Internet on
www.bmw.com.

Your individual vehicle
When you ordered your BMW, you chose vari-
ous items of equipment. This Owner's Hand-
book describes all models and equipment
specifications which BMW offers within this
particular model line.
This explains why the Owner's Handbook may
also contain details of items which you have not
ordered. The differences can easily be identi-
fied by the asterisk
*
shown against optional
extras.
Should your BMW feature equipment which is
not described in this Owner's Handbook,
please refer to the Supplementary Owner's
Handbooks supplied with your vehicle.
In right-hand drive vehicles, some of the
controls are arranged differently from
those shown in the illustrations of this Owner's
Handbook.<
Status at time of printing
The high safety and quality standards of BMW
vehicles are maintained by unceasing develop-
ment work on designs, equipment and acces-
sories. In rare instances, your car may therefore
differ from the information supplied in the
Owner's Handbook.
For your own safety
Maintenance and repair
The advanced technology behind this car,
for example the use of modern materials
and high-performance electronics, means that
specially adapted methods of maintenance and
repair are required. Always have the necessary
work on your BMW performed either by BMW
Service or by a workshop that operates to BMW
specifications and has suitably trained person-
nel. If such work is performed inexpertly, it could
result in consequential damage and thus con-
stitute a safety risk.<
Parts and accessories
BMW recommends using parts and
accessory products on this vehicle that
are specifically approved for this purpose by
BMW.
You are recommended to consult BMW Service
for advice on Genuine BMW parts and accesso-
ries, other BMW-approved products and com-
petent advice on all related matters.
The safety and compatibility of these parts and
products in conjunction with BMW vehicles
have been checked by BMW. BMW accepts
product liability for them.
BMW cannot accept liability for parts or acces-
sory products of any kind which it has not
approved.
BMW is unable to assess each individual prod-
uct of outside origin as to its suitability for use
on BMW vehicles without safety risk. This suit-
ability cannot be guaranteed even if an official
permit has been issued for the particular prod-
uct in a specific country. Tests performed for
such permits cannot always cover all operating
conditions for BMW vehicles, and some of them
therefore are insufficient.<

Indicator and warning lights
The principle
Indicator and warning lights can come on in var-
ious combinations and colours in panel 1 or 2.
Some lights are checked for proper functioning
and thus come on briefly when the engine starts
or the ignition is switched on.
What to do in the event of a fault
A list of all indicator and warning lights, as well
as notes on the possible cause of a fault and on
what corresponding measures should be taken,
can be found starting on page 142.

This chapter enables you to operate your car
with greater ease. All equipment items that are
of relevance for driving and make your journey
safer and more comfortable are described here.

Keys/remote controls
Every remote control contains a rechargeable
battery that is automatically recharged when it
is in the ignition lock while the car is being
driven. Drive a longer distance with each
remote control at least twice annually in order to
maintain battery charge. If your car is fitted with
convenient access
*
, the remote control con-
tains a replaceable battery, see page 26.
The settings called up and implemented when
the car is unlocked depend on which remote
control is used to unlock the car, see Personal
Profile, page 16.
In addition, information about service require-
ments is stored in the remote control, see
Service data in the remote control, page 127.
Integrated key
Press button 1 to release the key.
The integrated key fits the following locks:
> Key switch for front passenger airbags
*
,
see page 40
> Glove box, see page 95
> Driver's door, see page 19
> Saloon:
Luggage compartment lid, see page 21
New remote controls
BMW Service can supply new remote controls
with integrated keys, as additional units or as
replacements in the event of loss.
Personal Profile
The principle
You can set many of your BMW's functions to
suit your personal needs and preferences.
Without any action on your part, Personal Pro-
file ensures that most of these settings are
saved for the remote control currently in use.
When you unlock the car the remote control
used for the purpose is recognised and the set-
tings saved for it are called up and imple-
mented.
This means that your personal settings will be
activated for you, even if in the meantime your
BMW was used by someone else with another
remote control and the corresponding settings.
Individual settings are saved for up to three
remote controls.

the pages referred to.

Central locking system
The principle
The central locking becomes active when the
driver's door is closed.
The following are unlocked or locked in combi-
nation:
> Doors
> Luggage compartment lid/tailgate
> Fuel filler flap
Operating from outside
> Via the remote control
> Via the door lock
> With convenient access
*
by means of the
handles on the driver's and the front pas-
senger's door
The deadlocks are operated at the same time.
The latter prevent the doors from being
unlocked either at the safety lock buttons or
door handles. In addition, if the remote control
is used, the interior lights and the doors' ground
lights
*
are switched on or off. The alarm sys-
tem
*
is also armed or disarmed.
For further details of the alarm system, see
page 23.
Operating from inside
By means of the button for central locking, see
page 20.
In the event of a sufficiently severe accident, the
central locking system unlocks automatically. In
addition, the hazard warning flashers and the
interior lights are switched on.
Opening and closing:
With the remote control
Persons remaining in the car or pets left
inside can lock the doors from the inside.
You should therefore take the remote control
with you when you get out of the vehicle so that
the latter can be opened from the outside.<
Unlocking
Press the button.
The interior lights, the ground lights
*
and the
welcome lights come on.
You can also set the way in which the car is
unlocked. The setting is stored for the remote
control currently in use.
Operating principle, see page 64.
1. Switch on the ignition, see page 45.
2. Lightly push button 1 in the turn indicator
lever up or down repeatedly until the sym-
bol and the word "SET" are displayed.
3. Press button 2.

5. Press button 2.
6. Press button 1 to select:
>

*
/panorama
glass roof
*

Watch the closing movement to ensure
that no one is trapped. The closing proce-
dure is interrupted if the button is released.<
Switching on the interior lights
While the car is locked:
Press the button.
This function also enables you to locate the car,
for instance in a parking garage.
Saloon:
Unlocking the luggage compartment
lid
Press the button for longer.
The luggage compartment lid opens a short
distance, regardless of whether it was locked or
unlocked.
On certain national-market versions, the
luggage compartment lid cannot be
opened unless the car has been unlocked.
In order to avoid damage, make sure there is
sufficient clearance before opening the luggage
compartment lid. If the luggage compartment
lid had been locked before it was opened, it is
locked again as soon as it is closed.
Before and after each trip, check that the lug-
gage compartment lid has not been inadvert-
ently unlocked.<
Touring:
Unlocking the tailgate
Press the button for longer.
The tailgate opens a short distance, regardless
of whether it was locked or unlocked.
On certain national-market versions, the
tailgate cannot be opened unless the car
has been unlocked.
If the tailgate had been locked before it was
opened, it is locked again as soon as it is closed.
Before and after each trip, check that the tail-
gate has not been inadvertently unlocked.<
If you press the button on the remote
control for longer a second time within
three seconds, the roller-blind cover is raised
*
.
Before closing the tailgate, press the roller blind
down until it snaps into place.<
Setting confirmation signals
You can choose to have visual confirmation that
the car has been unlocked or locked.
