Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge mode appears automatically
once the fuel level falls into the reserve range.
The tanks still contains the following quantities
of fuel:
>750i/Li: approx. 2.6 gallons/10 liters.
>760i/Li: approx. 3.1 gallons/12 liters.
If the tilt of the vehicle varies, when you are driv-
ing in mountainous areas, for example, the indi-
cator may fluctuate slightly.
After reaching the reserve quantity, the
Info Display can no longer be hidden.
However, you can still display the remaining
range.<
Fuel tank capacity: approx. 23.2 gallons/
88 liters. You can find information on refueling
on page196.
Refuel well before the tank is empty. If
you drive down to the last drop, engine
functions are not assured and damage can
occur.<

Refueling
Fuel filler door
Always switch off the engine before refu-
eling; otherwise, no fuel can be dispensed
into the tank and a message is displayed.<
To open and close: briefly press the rear edge of
the fuel filler door.
Manual release
In the event of a malfunction, you can release
the fuel filler door manually:
1.Lift the handle to remove the cover panel on
the right side of the luggage compartment.
2.Take the knob with the fuel pump symbol
from the bracket and pull it to unlock the
fuel filler door.
When handling fuel, always take all appli-
cable precautionary measures and regu-
lations. Never transport reserve fuel containers
in the vehicle. These can leak and cause an
explosion or a fire in an accident.<
Simple and environmentally friendly
When handling fuels, always follow any
safety guidelines posted at the gas sta-
tion.<
Put the filler cap in the bracket attached to the
fuel filler door.
When refueling, insert the filler nozzle com-
pletely into the filler pipe. Avoid raising the filler
nozzle during refueling; otherwise, this
>results in premature pump shutoff
>can lead to reduced efficiency in the fuel-
vapor recovery system
The fuel tank is full when the filler nozzle clicks
off the first time.
Fuel tank capacity
Approx. 23.2 US gallons/88 liters, including a
reserve of:
>750i/Li: approx. 2.6 gallons/10 liters.
>760i/Li: approx. 3.1 gallons/12 liters.
Refuel as soon as possible once your
cruising range falls below 30 miles/
50 km; otherwise, engine functions are not
assured and damage can occur.<
Closing fuel filler cap
Fit the cap and turn it clockwise until you clearly
hear a click.
Do not crush the cap leash between the
fuel filler cap and the vehicle. A message
*
is displayed if the cap is loose or missing.<

Socket for OBD Onboard
Diagnostics
Components which are decisive for the
exhaust-gas composition can be checked via
the OBD socket with a device.
This socket is located to the left on the driver's
side, on the underside of the instrument panel
under a cover.
Emissions values
The warning lamp lights up. The emis-
sions values are deteriorating. Have the
vehicle checked as soon as possible.
Display of the previously described
malfunction on Canadian models.
Under certain circumstances, the warning lamp
will flash. This is a sign of excessive misfiring of
the engine. In this case you should reduce
speed and drive to the nearest BMW center as
soon as possible. Serious engine misfiring,
even for only a short period of time, can seri-
ously damage emission control components,
especially the catalytic converter.
If the fuel filler cap is not properly tight-
ened, the OBD system can detect the
vapor leak and the indicator lamp will light up. If
the cap is then tightened, the display should go
out within a few days.<
Event Data Recorders
Your vehicle may be equipped with one or sev-
eral measuring and diagnosis modules, or with a
device for recording or transmitting certain
vehicle data or information. If you have also
signed a contract of participation for BMW
Assist, certain vehicle data can be transmitted
or recorded to enable corresponding services.
Care
You can find useful information on caring for
your BMW in the Caring for your vehicle bro-
chure.
