9. At page 152, under the heading “Pressure
specifications,” the sentence beginning,
“The inflation pressures apply to the tire si-
zes approved … .” should be disregarded.
10. At page 159, under the heading: “Approved
wheels and tires,” the term “Approved”
should be disregarded and in lieu thereof,
the term “Recommended” should be read in
its place. In addition, the text of that section
should be disregarded and the following
text should be read in lieu thereof:
The manufacturer of your vehicle strongly
suggests that you use wheels and tires that
have been recommended by the vehicle
manufacturer for your vehicle type; other-
wise, for example, despite having the same
official size ratings, variations can lead to
body contact and with it, the risk of severe
accidents.
The manufacturer of your vehicle does not
evaluate non-recommended wheels and ti-
res to determine if they are suitable for use
on your vehicle.
11. At page 165, under the heading “Hood,” the
sentence beginning, “If you are unfamiliar”
should be disregarded.
12. At page 169, under the heading: “Service
and Warranty Information Booklet for US
Models and Warranty and Service Guide
Booklet for Canadian Models,” the second
paragraph should be disregarded and the
following text read in lieu thereof:
The manufacturer of your vehicle recom-
mends that you have maintenance and re-
pair performed by your MINI dealer's service
center or another service center or repair
shop that employs trained personnel that
can perform maintenance and repair work
on your vehicle in accordance with MINI
specifications. The manufacturer of your ve-
hicle recommends that you maintain re-
cords of all maintenance and repair work
performed on your vehicle.
13. At page 179, under the “Battery replace-
ment” section, the text should be disregar-
ded and in lieu thereof the following text
should be read:
Use of recommended vehicle batteries
The manufacturer of your vehicle recom-
mends that you use vehicle batteries that it
has tested and recommends for use in your
vehicle; otherwise the vehicle could be da-
maged and systems or functions may not be
fully available.
After a battery replacement, the manufactu-
rer of your vehicle recommends that you
have the battery registered on your vehicle
by a service center to ensure that all comfort
functions are fully available, and that any
“check control” messages of these comfort
functions are no longer displayed.
