For you own safety

Use unleaded gasoline only. Fuels
containing up to and including 10 %
ethanol or other oxygenates with up to
2.8 % oxygen by weight Ð that is, 15 %
MTBE or 3% methanol plus an equivalent
amount of co-solvent Ð will not void the
applicable warranties respecting defects in
materials or workmanship. Field experi-
ence has indicated significant differences
in fuel quality Ð volatility, composition, addi-
tives, etc. Ð among gasolines offered for
sale in the United States and Canada. The
use of poor quality fuels may result in drive-
ability, starting and stalling problems espe-
cially under certain environmental
conditions such as high ambient tempera-
ture and high altitude.
Should you encounter driveability prob-
lems which you suspect could be related to
the fuel you are using, we recommend that
you respond by switching to a recognized
high-quality brand.
Failure to comply with these recommenda-
tions may result in unscheduled mainte-
nance.
Follow the relevant safety rules when you
are handling gasoline.

mance when installed on your vehicle.

BMW cannot test every product made by
other manufacturers to verify if it can be
used on a BMW safely and without risk to
either the vehicle, its operation, or its occu-
pants. Original BMW Parts, BMW Accesso-
ries and other products approved by BMW,
together with professional advice on using

shields, telephones Ð including operation of
any portable cellular phone from within the
vehicle without using an externally
mounted antenna Ð or transceiver equip-
ment, for instance, CBs, walkie-talkie, ham
radio or similar accessories, may cause
extensive damage to the vehicle, compro-
mise its safety, interfere with the vehicle's
electrical system or affect the validity of the

Voice commandVoice command system*The conceptThe voice command system allows you to
control operation of various vehicle
systems without ever removing your hands
from the steering wheel. The system oper-
ates on the basis of voice commands that
you will learn easily after using them a few
times. You issue your commands in the
form of instructions or in dialogs. The
dialog functions provide you with additional
support in the form of questions and infor-
mation.
The voice command system transforms
your commands and dialog answers into
control signals for the selected systems.
Please take the time to acquaint your-
self with how a particular system
operates before proceeding to control it
using the voice command system. At the
time of publication the voice command
system was available for use with the
English and German languages. Other
languages are currently in preparation.

you can adjust the volume, refer to
