BMW specifications. The manufacturer of
your vehicle recommends that you maintain
records of all maintenance and repair work
performed on your vehicle.
14. At page 250 and page 252, where it reads:

ing system … ,” the following words should
be read as preceding that passage: “It is
strongly suggested that you … .”
15. At page 255, under the “Battery replace-
ment” section, the text should be disre-
garded and in lieu thereof the following text
should be read:

has tested and recommends for use in your
vehicle; otherwise the vehicle could be
damaged and systems or functions may not

Data memory
Numerous electronic components in your vehi‐
cle contain data memories that store technical
information on the vehicle condition, events and faults, either temporarily or permanently.
This technical information generally docu‐

system or the environment.▷Operating conditions of system compo‐
nents, such as filling levels.▷Status messages from the vehicle and its
individual components, such as wheel rpm/
speed, motion delay, transverse accelera‐
tion.▷Malfunctions and defects in important sys‐
tem components, such as lights and

ture.
These data are of a technical nature only and
are used to detect and eliminate faults and to
optimize vehicle functions. Travel profiles of
routes driven with the vehicle cannot be cre‐
ated from these data. If services are used, for
instance in the event of repairs, service proc‐
esses, warranty cases, quality assurance, etc.,
this technical information can be read out from
the event and fault data memories by service
personnel, including the manufacturer, using
special diagnosis tools. This service personnel
can provide you with more information if

in the fault memory is cleared or overwritten
