Wheels and tyresVehicle equipment
This chapter describes all standard, national
and special equipment provided in the model
series. Equipment not available in the vehicle is
therefore also described, for example the se‐
lected special equipment or national version.
This also applies to safety-relevant functions
and systems. Comply with the relevant na‐
tional regulations when using the correspond‐
ing functions and systems.
Tyre pressures Information for your safety
A tyre’s condition and pressure influence the
following:▷Operating life of the tyre.▷Driving safety.▷Driving comfort.
Checking tyre pressures
WARNING
A tyre with inadequate or missing tyre in‐
flation pressure impairs driving properties, for example steering and braking. Danger of acci‐
dents. Check tyre inflation pressure regularly
and adjust as necessary, for example twice a
month or before any long journey.◀
Tyres have a natural, uniform tyre pressure
loss.
Tyres heat up when driving and with the tem‐
perature of the tyre, the tyre filling pressure in‐
creases. The tyre filling pressure data relate to
cold tyres or tyres at ambient temperature.
Only check the tyre pressure when the tyres
are cold. In other words, after driving for a max‐
imum of 2 km or if the vehicle has been parked
for at least 2 hours.
Inflating devices can display a pressure as
much as 0.1 bar too low.
With runflat indicator: reinitialise the runflat in‐
dicator after adjusting tyre pressures.
With tyre pressure monitor: reset the tyre pres‐
sure monitor after adjusting the tyre pressure
to a new value.
Tyre inflation pressures
The tyre inflation pressures for the tyre sizes
categorised by the vehicle manufacturer as
suitable for the respective vehicle type can be
found on the door pillar of the driver's door.
If the speed letter of the tyre cannot be found,
the tyre inflation pressure of the corresponding
size applies. The tyre inflation pressure data
apply to tyres at ambient temperature.
For Australia/New Zealand WARNING
The inflation pressures on the tyre label
are applicable only for tyres explicitly men‐
tioned on the label. Since inflation pressures
for tyres that may be covered by the label – by
size, speed category and load rating/load index
– but not explicitly mentioned on the label may
be different. Please obtain adequate inflation
pressures in accordance with the tyre manu‐
facturer's specifications at your tyre dealer.◀

MaintenanceVehicle equipment
This chapter describes all standard, national
and special equipment provided in the model
series. Equipment not available in the vehicle is
therefore also described, for example the se‐
lected special equipment or national version.
This also applies to safety-relevant functions
and systems. Comply with the relevant na‐
tional regulations when using the correspond‐
ing functions and systems.
BMW Maintenance System
The maintenance system points out the nec‐
essary maintenance measures and so sup‐
ports in maintaining the road and operational
safety of the vehicle.
Scopes and intervals may vary depending on
national version. Replacement work, spare
parts, operating materials and wear material
are calculated separately. Further information
is available from a Service Partner or a qualified
specialist workshop.
Condition Based Service,
CBS
Sensors and advanced algorithms monitor the
conditions in which your vehicle is used. Con‐
dition Based Service uses this information to
calculate the maintenance requirements.
The system thus enables adaptation of the
scope of maintenance to the individual usage
profile.
Detailed information on service requirements,
see page 87, can be displayed at the Control
Display.Service data in the remote control
Information on maintenance requirements is
continually saved in the remote control. The Service Partner or a qualified specialist work‐
shop can read out this data and suggest an op‐
timised maintenance scope for your vehicle.
This is why you should hand over the remote
control that was last used for driving to your
service advisor with the vehicle.
Periods out of use
Immobilisation periods with the vehicle battery
disconnected are not taken into account.
Updating the time-dependent maintenance
scope such as brake fluid and any engine oil
and microfilter or activated carbon filter can be
done by a Service Partner or a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop.
Service history Have maintenance and repair carried out by a
Service Partner or a qualified specialist work‐
shop.
The maintenance work carried out is entered in
the proof of maintenance and the vehicle data.
The entries are, just like a service booklet, evi‐
dence of regular maintenance.
If an entry is made in the electronic service his‐
tory of the vehicle, service-relevant data is not
only saved in the vehicle but also on the central
IT systems of BMW AG, Munich.
The data entered in the electronic service his‐
tory can also be viewed by the new vehicle
owner after a change of vehicle owner. In addi‐
tion, all Service Partners and other authorised
and qualified specialist workshops can view
the data entered in the electronic service his‐
tory.Seite 191MaintenanceMobility191
