Avoid high engine speeds
Use 1st gear to get the vehicle in motion. Be‐
ginning with 2nd gear, accelerate rapidly. When
accelerating, shift up before reaching high en‐
gine speeds.
When you reach the desired speed, shift into the
highest applicable gear and drive with the en‐
gine speed as low as possible and at a constant
speed.
As a rule: driving at low engine speeds lowers
fuel consumption and reduces wear.
The gear shift indicator of your vehicle indicates
the most fuel efficient gear.
Use coasting conditions
When approaching a red light, take your foot off
the accelerator and let the vehicle coast to a halt.
On a downhill gradient, take your foot off the ac‐
celerator and let the vehicle roll.
The flow of fuel is interrupted while coasting.
Switch off the engine during
longer stops
Switch off the engine during longer stops, e.g.,
at traffic lights, railroad crossings or in traffic
congestion.
Auto Start/Stop function
The Auto Start/Stop function of your vehicle au‐
tomatically switches off the engine during a
stop.
If the engine is switched off and then restarted
rather than leaving the engine running con‐
stantly, fuel consumption and emissions are re‐
duced. Savings can begin within a few seconds
of switching off the engine.
Using this system can cause certain compo‐
nents of the vehicle to become worn prema‐
turely.In addition, fuel consumption is also determined
by other factors, such as driving style, road con‐
ditions, maintenance or environmental factors.
Switch off any functions that
are not currently needed
Functions such as seat heating and the rear win‐
dow defroster require a lot of energy and con‐
sume additional fuel, especially in city and stop-
and-go traffic.
Therefore, switch off these functions if they are
not actually needed.
Have maintenance carried out
Have vehicles maintained regularly to achieve
optimal vehicle economy and operating life.
Have the maintenance carried out by your serv‐
ice center.
Please also note the BMW Maintenance Sys‐
tem, refer to page 200.
ECO PRO
The concept
ECO PRO supports a driving style that saves on
fuel consumption. For this purpose, the engine
control and comfort functions, e. g. the climate
control output, are adjusted.
In addition, context-sensitive instructions can
be displayed that assist in driving in a manner
that optimizes fuel consumption.
The extension of the range that is achieved as a
result can be displayed in the instrument cluster.

Winter diesel
To ensure that the diesel engine remains op‐
erational in the winter, use winter diesel.
It is available at gas stations during winter
months.
The fuel filter heating system, included as a
standard feature, prevents disruption of the fuel
supply while driving.
Do not add any diesel additives
Do not add additives, including gasoline;
otherwise, engine damage may occur.◀For vehicles equipped with
BMW Advanced Diesel
The concept
BMW Advanced Diesel reduces nitrogen oxides
in the diesel emissions from your vehicle by in‐
jecting Diesel exhaust fluid reducing agent into
the exhaust system. A chemical reaction takes
place inside the catalytic converter that mini‐
mizes nitrogen oxides.
In order to be able to start the engine as usual,
there must be sufficient Diesel exhaust fluid
present in the separate container.
Warming up the system
In order to warm the engine up to its operating
temperature after a cold start, the automatic
transmission may subsequently shift up to the
next higher gear.
Displays in the instrument cluster
Reserve display
This display in the instrument cluster provides
information about the distance that can still be
driven with the current reserve level.
The Reserve display appears af‐
ter about 1,000 miles/1,600 km
before the supply is predicted to
run out.
Refill in good time
The Diesel exhaust fluid must be replen‐
ished as soon as the Reserve display appears,
otherwise the engine cannot be restarted.◀
Diesel exhaust fluid on minimum The engine will continue to run
even when the display shows --
mls, as long as it is not switched
off and all other operating condi‐
tions are satisfied, sufficient fuel
for example.Seite 175FuelMobility175

Engine does not start
Do not continue driving to the limit of the
remaining travel distance. Otherwise, you will
not be able to restart the engine after switching
it off.◀
Filling with incorrect fuel If the incorrect fuel is used to refuel the
vehicle, a warning light comes on on the
instrument cluster.
After adding the wrong fuel, contact your service
center.
Having the vehicle refilled with Diesel
exhaust fluid
Diesel exhaust fluid is replenished by your Serv‐
ice Center in the course of regularly scheduled
maintenance. Provided you observe this main‐
tenance schedule, it is not normally necessary
to replenish the fluid between maintenance ap‐
pointments.
It may be necessary to have the fluid replenished
under particular circumstances, for example if
the vehicle is driven in a particularly sporty style
or if it is driven at high altitudes.
The Diesel exhaust fluid must be replenished as
soon as the reserve display appears in the in‐
strument cluster to avoid not being able to re‐
start the engine.
You can have the fluid replenished by any Serv‐
ice Center.
Diesel exhaust fluid at low
temperatures
Due to its physical properties, it is possible that
Diesel exhaust fluid may also need to be replen‐
ished between regular maintenance appoint‐
ments if it is exposed to temperatures below
+23 ℉/ -5 ℃.
The need to replenish it is indicated by the Re‐
serve display in the in the instrument cluster, re‐
fer to page 175.You can replenish the Diesel exhaust
fluid yourself in exceptional
circumstances
In order to reach the nearest Service Center with
your vehicle, you can replenish the Diesel ex‐
haust fluid yourself, provided you pay close at‐
tention to the following warning notices.
Handling Diesel exhaust fluid
Do not allow Diesel exhaust fluid to come
into contact with your skin, as this may cause
skin or eye irritation. Preferably, wear protective
goggles and gloves. Follow the safety instruc‐
tions on the bottle. When the bottle or container
is opened, acrid smelling fumes may escape.
When handling Diesel exhaust fluid indoors,
make sure the room is well ventilated. After
working with Diesel exhaust fluid, wash your
hands thoroughly, otherwise you may inadver‐
tently transfer fluid to your eyes and suffer irri‐
tation. If irritation of the eyes does occur, flush
your eyes immediately with abundant water and
consult a doctor as necessary. If Diesel exhaust
fluid comes into contact with the surfaces of
your vehicle, wash off the affected surfaces with
water, otherwise the surface may be damaged.
Keep Diesel exhaust fluid out of reach of chil‐
dren.◀
