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
accelerator 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.
Automatic Engine Start/Stop Function The Automatic Start/Stop Function of your ve‐
hicle automatically switches off the engine
during a stop. Additional information on the
Automatic Engine Start/Stop Function, refer to
page 59.
If the engine is stopped and then started again,
fuel consumption and emissions drop com‐
pared to an engine that runs permanently.
Stopping the engine even for just a few sec‐
onds can result in savings.
Use of this system can cause premature wear
on certain vehicle components.
In addition, fuel consumption depends on
other factors as well, such as driving style, road
conditions, maintenance, and environmental
factors.
Switch off any functions that
are not currently needed
Functions such as seat heating and the rear
window defroster require a lot of energy and
consume 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
service center.
Please also note the BMW Maintenance Sys‐
tem, refer to page 245.
ECO PRO
The concept ECO PRO supports the driver in achieving high
fuel economy. Engine control and comfort
functions, such as the climate control system,
are adjusted accordingly.
In addition, situation-related information can
be displayed that helps the driver achieve
lower fuel consumption.
The resulting range extension can be dis‐
played in the instrument cluster.
Activating ECO PRO Press the button; the LED above the
button lights up.
ECO PRO appears in the instrument cluster
and DSC is activated if necessary.
Displays in the instrument cluster
After activation, ECO PRO and the bonus
range are displayed in the instrument cluster.
