GPS
Enter data only when the vehicle is
stationary, and always obey the traffic
regulations and road signs in the event of
any contradiction between traffic and road
conditions and the instructions issued by
the navigation system. If you do not
observe this precaution, you may be in vio-
lation of the law, and can endanger vehicle
occupants and other road users.<
GPS stands for Global Positioning System.
This integral component within your vehi-
cle's navigation system relies on reference
satellites to determine the precise position
of your vehicle.
By allowing you to find your destination
without having to consult conventional
r oa d m aps as y ou d r iv e, th e n av iga tion sy s-
tem makes an important contribution to
traffic safety.
The result: the navigation system provides
y o u w i t h d e p e n d a b l e g u i d a n c e t o y o u r d e s -
tination.
Navigation CD/DVD
Navigation CDs/DVDs are inserted in the
navigation computer located behind the left
side trim in the luggage compartment.
You can use navigation CDs as of 2001-1
and navigation DVDs in your navigation
computer.
To ensure that your vehicle's navigation
system has access to the latest highway
network information, always load the most
recent CD/DVD version of the digital road
map.
As is the case with conventional road
maps, the navigation CDs/DVDs are sub-
ject to periodic updates to ensure that they
reflect the latest information and surveys.
Navigation CDs/DVDs are available at
your BMW center.<
Changing navigation CDs/DVDs
As you drive your BMW, the computer will
alert you when you are leaving the area
stored on your current navigation CD/DVD;
you should respond by changing the navi-
gation CD/DVD in the navigation computer.
Navigation CDs contain road maps cover-
ing one or more countries or regions.
Roadmaps of Europe are stored on the
navigation DVD.

Battery
Battery care
The battery is 100 % maintenance-free, i.e.,
the electrolyte will last for the life of the bat-
tery when the vehicle is operated in a tem-
perate climate. Your BMW center will be
happy to advise you on all questions con-
cerning the battery.
Charging battery
Only charge the battery in the vehicle via
the terminals in the engine compartment
with the engine off. Connections, refer to
Jump-starting on page210.
Battery switch
Before storing the vehicle for an extended
period of several weeks or more, slide the
battery switch located behind the trim
panel on the right side of the luggage com-
partment to OFF. This reduces the current
flow from the battery for the period during
which the vehicle remains parked. A mes-
sage appears in the Check Control. Please
take note of the supplementary information
provided on the Control Display.
Disposal
Have old batteries disposed of follow-
ing replacement at your BMW center
or bring them to a collection point. Maintain
the battery in an upright position for trans-
port and storage. Always secure the battery
to prevent it from tipping over during trans-
port.<
Power failure
Following a temporary power failure, e.g. in
the case of a flat battery, some equipment
is subject to restricted use and must be
reinitialized. Individual settings are also lost
and must be updated again:
>Seat, mirror and steering wheel memory
The positions must be stored again,
refer to page55
>Time and date
Must be updated again, refer to
page90
>Radio
Stations must be stored again, refer to
page 154
>Navigation system
The operability must be waited for, refer
to page130.
Fuses
Never attempt to repair a blown fuse,
and do not replace a defective fuse
with a substitute of another color or amper-
age rating, as this could lead to a circuit
overload, ultimately resulting in a fire in the
vehicle.<
Spare fuses are located on the fuse strip in
the glove compartment; plastic tweezers
can be found at the fuse holder in the lug-
gage compartment.
In glove compartment
Press the tab on the cover to the front, then
fold up the cover.
