2013 BMW X6 temperature

Diesel exhaust fluid at minimum
Even with a display of -- mls, the engine will
continue to run, provided that it is not switched
off, and all other operating requirements are
met, e.g. sufficient fuel.
No engine start
Do not drive until the displayed remain‐
ing distance runs out. Otherwise, it may not be
possible to restart the engine.◀
Incorrect fueling The warning lamp lights up:
The reservoir has been filled with an in‐
correct fluid.
Please contact your service center.
Have diesel exhaust fluid refilled This exhaust fluid is refilled by your service
center during regular maintenance. If you ad‐
here to this maintenance schedule, it is usually
not necessary to refill any fluids between the
maintenance dates.
Under certain circumstances, for example, due
to a particularly sporty driving style or opera‐
tion of the vehicle at high altitudes, it may be
necessary to refill fluids between maintenance
dates.
As soon as the reserve display has appeared in
the instrument panel, have the diesel exhaust
fluid refilled to prevent the engine from being
unable to restart.
You can have the fluid refilled by a service cen‐
ter.
Diesel exhaust fluid at low
temperatures
Due to its physical properties, it may be neces‐
sary to replenish the level of diesel exhaust
fluid at temperatures below +23 ℉/ -5 ℃, even
between the regular maintenance dates.
If the fluid needs to be refilled, this will be indi‐
cated with the reserve display in the instru‐
ment cluster, refer to page 271.
Only refill the diesel exhaust fluid
yourself in exceptional circumstances
To be able to reach the nearest service center
with your vehicle, you may refill the diesel ex‐
haust fluid yourself, making sure to heed the
warning notices specified below.
Handling diesel exhaust fluid
Do not allow diesel exhaust fluid to come
into contact with you. This can lead to skin and
eye irritation. Wear protective goggles and
gloves as needed. Follow the safety instruc‐
tions on the bottle. When opening the bottle or
reservoir, pungent smelling vapors can escape.
Before refilling, close the vehicle completely so
that the vapors do not get into the interior of
the vehicle. When handling diesel exhaust fluid
in enclosed spaces, make sure to have suffi‐
cient ventilation. After handling diesel exhaust
fluid, wash hands thoroughly. Failure to do so
may lead to irritation, for instance, due to inad‐
vertent contact with the eyes. If eye irritation
occurs, immediately rinse eyes with ample wa‐
ter and contact a doctor if necessary. If diesel
exhaust fluid comes into contact with surfaces
of your vehicle, rinse the affected surfaces with
water or else damage may occur. Keep diesel
exhaust fluid out of reach of children.◀
Suitable diesel exhaust fluid▷Preferred: BMW Diesel Exhaust Fluid. This
bottle and its special adapter permit con‐
venient refilling with diesel exhaust fluid.▷Alternative: NOx reduction agent AUS 32Seite 272MobilityFuel272

Wheels and tiresVehicle equipment
This chapter describes all series equipment as
well as country-specific and special equipment
offered for this model series.Therefore, it also
describes equipment that may not be found in
your vehicle, for instance due to the selected
special equipment or the country version. This
also applies to safety-related functions and
systems.
Tire inflation pressure
Safety information
It is not merely the tires' service life, but also
driving comfort and, to a great extent, driving
safety that depend on the condition of the tires
and the maintenance of the specified tire pres‐
sure.
Checking the pressure Only check the tire inflation pressure when the
tires are cold. This means after a maximum of
1.25 miles/2 km driving or when the vehicle
has been parked for at least 2 hours. When the
tires are warm, the tire inflation pressure is
higher.
Check the tire inflation pressure regularly
Check the tire inflation pressure regularly
and correct it if necessary, even in the compact
wheel: usually twice monthly or before em‐
barking on a long trip. If you fail to observe this
precaution, you may be driving on tires with in‐
correct tire pressures, a condition that may not
only compromise your vehicle's driving stabil‐
ity, but also lead to tire damage and the risk of
an accident.Do not drive with depressurized or flat tires,
except for run-flat tires. A flat tire will seriously
impair your vehicle's handling and braking re‐
sponse. Attempts to drive on a flat tire can lead
to a loss of control over the vehicle.◀
After adjusting the tire inflation pressure, reset
the Tire Pressure Monitor, refer to page 99, or
reinitialize the Flat Tire Monitor, refer to
page 97.
Pressure specifications The tables below provide all the correct infla‐
tion pressures for the specified tire sizes at
ambient temperature.
The inflation pressures apply to the tire sizes
approved and tire brands recommended by
BMW; a list of these is available from your
service center.
For correct identification of the right tire infla‐
tion pressures, observe the following:▷Tire sizes of your vehicle.▷Maximum allowable driving speed.
Tire inflation pressures for driving up
to 100 mph or 160 km/h
For normal driving up to 100 mph/160 km/h,
adjust pressures to the respective tire inflation
pressures listed on the following pages in the
column for traveling speeds up to 100 mph/
160 km/h to achieve optimum driving comfort.
These tire inflation pressures can also be
found on the driver's side door pillar when the
driver's door is open.

Do not exceed the maximum permissible
speed
The maximum permissible speed for these tire
pressures is 100 mph/160 km/h. Do not ex‐
ceed this speed; otherwise, tire damage and
accidents may occur.◀
Tire inflation pressures for driving
above 100 mph or 160 km/h
Adjust the tire inflation pressures
To drive at maximum speeds in excess of
100 mph/160 km/h, adjust pressures to the re‐
spective tire inflation pressures listed on the
following pages in the column for traveling
speeds including those exceeding 100 mph or
160 km/h. Otherwise, tire damage and acci‐
dents could occur.◀
Observe all national and local maximum speed
limits; otherwise, violations of the laws could
occur.
