Changing wheels
Your BMW comes with run-flat tires as standard
equipment. This eliminates the need to change
a wheel immediately in the event of a puncture.
For information on continuing to drive with a
damaged tire, refer to Indication of a flat tire on
page83.
The symbol identifying run-flat tires is a circle
with the letters RSC on the sidewall, refer to
Run-flat tires, page200.When mounting new tires or changing over
from summer to winter tires and vice versa,
mount run-flat tires for your own safety. In the
event of a flat, no spare wheel is available. Your
BMW center will be glad to advise you. Refer
also to New wheels and tires, page200.
The tools for changing wheels are avail-
able as optional accessories from your
BMW center.<
Jack mounting points
The jacking points are at the positions shown in
the illustration.

Battery care
The battery is 100 % maintenance-free, the
electrolyte will last for the life of the battery

mate. Your BMW center will be glad to advise in
all matters concerning the battery.
Replacing the battery
Use only vehicle battery types that are
approved by the manufacturer of your
vehicle; otherwise, the vehicle may be damaged
or some functions may become partly or com-
pletely unavailable.<
After replacing the battery, have it paired with
the vehicle at your BMW center so that all con-
venience functions are completely available.
