MaintenanceVehicle features and op‐
tions
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with the
series. It also describes features that are not
necessarily available in your car, e. g., due to
the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐
tems.
When using the features and systems described
here, adhere to local regulations.
MINI maintenance system
The MINI maintenance system provides infor‐
mation on required maintenance measures and
thus provides support in maintaining road
safety and the operational reliability of the ve‐
hicle.
Condition Based Service
CBS
Sensors and special algorithms take into ac‐
count the various driving conditions of your
MINI. Based on this, Condition Based Service
determines the current and future mainte‐
nance requirements.
The system makes it possible to adapt the
amount of maintenance you need to your user
profile.
Detailed information on service requirements
can be displayed on the Control Display, refer
to page 74.
Service data in the remote control
Information on the required maintenance is continuously stored in the remote control. The
dealer’s service center can read this data out
and suggest an optimized maintenance scope
for your vehicle.
Therefore, hand the service advisor the remote
control with which the vehicle was driven most
recently.
Make sure the date is set correctly; otherwise,
the effectiveness of CBS Condition Based Serv‐
ice is not ensured.
Storage periods Storage periods during which the vehicle bat‐
tery was disconnected are not taken into ac‐
count.
If this occurs, have a dealer's service center or
another qualified service center or repair shop
update the time-dependent maintenance pro‐
cedures, such as checking brake fluid and, if
necessary, changing the engine oil and the mi‐
crofilter/activated-charcoal filter.
