The interior temperature, air volume, and air
distribution can be set starting from the radio
ready state.
Switching cooling function on and off
manually
When activated, the air conditioner
mode cools and dehumidifies the
incoming air, reheating it as
required, depending on the temperature set-
ting. Depending on the weather, the windshield
may fog over briefly when the engine is started.
The cooling function is switched on automati-
cally with the AUTO program. The passenger
compartment can only be cooled with the
engine running.
Rear window defroster
The rear window defroster
switches off automatically after a
while. Depending on your equip-
ment package, the upper wires are used as an
antenna and are not part of the rear window
defroster.
Front ventilation
1Knurled wheels for smoothly opening and
closing the air vents
2Knurled wheels for changing airflow direc-
tion
Ventilation for cooling
Adjust the vents to direct the flow of cool air in
your direction, for instance, if the interior has
become too warm, etc.
Draft-free ventilation
Set the vent outlets so that the air flows past
you and is not directed straight at you.
Ventilation in rear

closing the air vents

Microfilter/activated-charcoal filter
The microfilter removes dust and pollen from
the incoming air. The activated-charcoal filter
provides additional protection by filtering gas-
eous pollutants from the outside air. Your BMW
center replaces this combined filter as a stan-
dard part of your scheduled maintenance.
You can select a display of more detailed infor-
mation in the service required display, refer to
page78.

Maintenance
BMW Maintenance System
The BMW Maintenance System serves to
retain the operating and road safety of your
BMW. The service schedule also includes oper-
ations related to the vehicle's comfort and con-
venience features, such as replacement of the
filters for the inside air. The aim is to optimize
maintenance procedures with a view to reduc-
ing the cost of running the vehicle.
Should the day come when you decide to sell
your BMW, you will find that a complete dealer
service history is an asset of inestimable value.
CBS Condition Based Service
Sensors and special algorithms take the differ-
ent driving conditions of your BMW into
account. As a result, Condition Based Service
determines the current and future maintenance
requirements. By letting you define a service
and maintenance regimen that reflects your
own individual requirements, the system forms
the basis for trouble-free driving.
On the Control Display, you can have the
remaining times and distances for selected
maintenance procedures and any legally man-
dated deadlines displayed, refer to page78:
>Engine oil
>Brakes, separate for front and rear
>Microfilter
>Brake fluid
>Spark plugs>Vehicle check
>Legally prescribed inspections depending
on national regulations
Service data in the remote control
Your vehicle continuously stores service-
requirement information in the remote control
while you are driving. After accessing the data
stored in the vehicle key, your BMW Service
Advisor can suggest precisely the right array of
service procedures for your own individual vehi-
cle. This is why it is important when you take
your vehicle in for service to give the BMW Ser-
vice Advisor the last remote control you used
for driving.
Storage periods with the battery discon-
nected are not taken into account by the
CBS maintenance system. If this occurs, have a
BMW center update the time-dependent main-
tenance procedures, such as checking brake
fluid and if necessary engine oil and the micro/
activated charcoal filter.<
Service and Warranty Information
Booklet for US models and
Warranty and Service Guide Booklet
for Canadian models
Please consult your Service and Warranty Infor-
mation Booklet for US models and Warranty
and Service Guide Booklet for Canadian models
for additional information on service require-
ments.
BMW recommends that you have service
and repair operations performed at your
BMW center.
Take the time to ensure that these service pro-
cedures are confirmed by entries in your vehi-
cle's Service and Warranty Information Booklet
for US models and Warranty and Service Guide
Booklet for Canadian models. These entries
verify that your vehicle has received the speci-
fied regular maintenance.<

Replacing components
Onboard tool kit
The onboard toolkit is located in the luggage
compartment lid.
Loosen the wingnut to open.
The adapter for the spare key can be stored
beneath the open-ended wrenches.
Windshield wiper blades
To replace the blades, start by folding the wip-
ers out and away from the windshield, refer to
page66.
Lamps and bulbs
Lamps and lights contribute significantly to
road safety. Therefore, comply fully with the fol-
lowing instructions during bulb replacement.
BMW recommends that you entrust corre-
sponding procedures to your BMW center if
you are unfamiliar with them or they are not
described here.
Never touch the glass of new bulbs with
your bare fingers, as even minute traces
of contamination will burn into the bulb's sur-
face and reduce its service life. Use a clean
cloth, napkin, etc., or hold the bulb by its metal
socket.<
You can obtain a selection of replacement bulbs
at your BMW center.When working on the lighting system, you
should always switch off the lights
affected to prevent short circuits.
To avoid possible injury or equipment damage
when replacing bulbs, follow any instructions
provided by the bulb manufacturer.<
When maintaining the headlamps, please follow
the instructions in the separate Caring for your
vehicle brochure.
Light-emitting diodes LEDs
Light-emitting diodes installed behind translu-
cent lenses serve as the light source for many of
the controls and displays in your vehicle. These
light-emitting diodes, which operate using a
concept similar to that applied in conventional
lasers, are officially designated as Class 1 light-
emitting diodes.
Do not remove the covers, and never
stare into the unfiltered light for several
hours, as irritation of the retina could result.<
Xenon lamp*
The service life of these bulbs is very long and
the probability of a failure is very low, provided
that they are not switched on and off an unusual
number of times. In the unlikely event that one
of these lamps should fail, you can respond by
switching on your fog lamps and proceeding
carefully, where allowed by law.
Only have work on the xenon lighting sys-
tem including bulb changes carried out by
a BMW center or a repair shop that works in
accordance with BMW guidelines and uses
appropriately trained personnel. Due to the high
voltage involved, there is a danger to life and
limb when work is carried out improperly.<
For checking and adjusting headlamp
aim, please contact your BMW center.<
