Emission Control
Maintenance Schedule
The maintenance schedule as shown is
required for the proper functioning of the
emission control systems for optimum vehicle
performance and fuel economy.
Basic Engine
Engine oil As specified by CBS
Engine oil filter As specified by CBS
Fuel System
Air filter As specified by CBS
Ignition System
Spark plugs As specified by CBS
Emission Control Components
Oxygen sensor Replace at intervals
of 100,000 miles
Oxygen Sensor Service: The oxygen sensor
deteriorates strictly on a mileage basis and
must therefore be replaced to maximize
vehicle fuel economy and minimize exhaust
pollution.
Battery Care
If your car is driven only for short distances of
less than 10 miles over a prolonged period of
time, without an occasional drive at highway
speeds, the engine’s charging system will not
maintain the battery. Insufficient use of the
vehicle could result in short term starting
problems and in the long term could damage
the battery.
In case the car is not operated for several
weeks it is advisable to:
a) slide battery switch to “Off ” position. Refer
to “Battery Switch” in vehicle owner’s
manual.
b) consider using a proper trickle charger,
following the charger manufacturer’s
instructions, to maintain the battery’s state
of charge; or
c) consult your BMW center regarding battery
removal. Once removed, the battery must
be charged and stored in a cool, dry place
where it can be protected from freezing. If
the battery will be stored for over 3
months, it must be recharged every 3
months, or else it will become damaged
and useless.
Please consult with your BMW center for
further guidance and information.

However, the use of non-BMW replacement
parts or non-EPA certified parts does not
invalidate the warranty on other components,
unless non-BMW parts or non-EPA certified
parts cause damage to warranted parts.
What is not covered
This warranty does not cover malfunctions
caused by any of the following: accident,
flood, misuse, improper adjustment, modifica-
tion, alteration, tampering, disconnection,
improper or inadequate maintenance, use of
leaded fuel or fuels containing more than
10% ethanol, or other oxygenates with more
than 2.8% oxygen by weight (i.e., more than
15% MTBE or more than 3% methanol plus
an equivalent amount of co-solvent).
The replacement of maintenance parts, such
as spark plugs, filters and similar items used
in required maintenance services, the repair
or replacement of maintenance parts beyond
the first required inspection/maintenance, or if
the part has been replaced earlier for reasons
other than it being defective.
The car or any part of the car unless a failure
causes the car to fail to conform to applicable
emission regulations.
Any car on which the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage
cannot be determined.
The car, if the vehicle identification number is
altered or cannot be read, or if the car has
been declared a total loss or sold for salvage
purposes.
General
These warranties give you specific legal
rights, and you may also have other rights
which vary from state to state.
THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, IS
LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE
EXPRESS WARRANTIES HEREIN.
BMW NA HEREBY EXCLUDES INCIDENTAL
AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES,
INCLUDING LOSS OF TIME, INCONVE-
NIENCE, OR LOSS OF USE OF THE
VEHICLE, FOR ANY BREACH OF ANYEXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY,
INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, APPLICABLE TO THIS
PRODUCT.
Some states do not allow limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, or the exclu-
sion or limitation of incidental or consequen-
tial damages, so the above limitations and
exclusions may not apply to you. Additionally,
if you are a California, Maine, Massachusetts
or Vermont resident and your vehicle is regis-
tered in that state, your vehicle is eligible for
California Emissions Warranty coverage.
These federal warranty provisions also apply
to all vehicles sold in all U.S. states and terri-
tories regardless of whether a state has
enacted state warranty provisions that differ
from the federal provisions.

It is strongly recommended that any replace-
ment parts used for maintenance, repair or
replacement of emission control systems be
genuine BMW Service Parts or BMW
Authorized Remanufactured Parts. Without
invalidating this warranty, the owner may elect
to have maintenance, repair or replacement
of the emission control systems performed by
any automotive repair establishment, or elect
to use parts other than BMW Authorized
Remanufactured or genuine BMW Service
Parts. However, the cost of such service or
parts will not be covered under this warranty,
except in emergency situations. In an
emergency situation, where an authorized
BMW center is not reasonably available or a
warranty replacement part is not available
within 30 days, repairs may be performed at
any available service establishment or by any
individual using any replacement part.
A repair not completed within 30 days consti-
tutes an emergency. BMW NA will reimburse
the owner for such emergency repairs (includ-
ing labor, parts and diagnosis not to exceed
BMW suggested retail price for all warranted
parts replaced and labor charges based on
the manufacturer’s recommended time
allowance for the warranty repair and the
geographically appropriate hourly labor rate)
that are covered under this warranty.
Replaced parts and paid invoices must be
presented to a BMW center as a condition of
reimbursement for emergency repairs not
performed by a BMW center.
The use of replacement parts, which are not
of equivalent quality, may impair the effective-
ness of emission control systems. If other
than genuine BMW Service Parts or
Authorized Remanufactured Parts are used
for maintenance, repair or replacement of
components affecting emission control, the
owner should obtain assurances that such
parts are warranted by their manufacturer to
be equivalent to genuine BMW parts in
performance and durability. BMW NA
assumes no liability under this warranty with
respect to parts other than genuine BMW
parts.
However, the use of non-BMW replacement
parts does not invalidate the warranty on
other components, unless non-BMW partscause damage to warranted parts.
What is not covered
This warranty does not cover malfunctions
caused by any of the following: accident,
flood, misuse, modification, alteration,
tampering, disconnection, improper or inade-
quate maintenance, except if performed by an
authorized BMW center doing warranty repair
work, use of leaded fuel or fuel other than as
specified in the Owner’s Manual.
The replacement of maintenance parts, such
as spark plugs, filters and similar items used
in required maintenance services or the
repair or replacement of maintenance parts
beyond the first replacement interval.
Any car on which the odometer has been
replaced or altered and the true mileage
cannot be determined.
The car, if the vehicle identification number is
altered or cannot be determined, or if the car
has been declared a total loss or sold for
salvage purposes.
General
The warranty gives you specific legal rights,
and you may also have other rights which
vary from state to state.
THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED
WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, IS
LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE
EXPRESS WARRANTIES HEREIN. BMW
OF NORTH AMERICA HEREBY EXCLUDES
INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF TIME,
INCONVENIENCE, OR LOSS OF USE OF
THE VEHICLE, FOR ANY BREACH OF ANY
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY,
INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY, APPLICABLE TO THIS
PRODUCT.
