Battery care

The battery is completely maintenance-

free. That means that the original acid

will normally last for the service life of

the battery under temperate climatic

conditions.

For all questions that regard the

battery, please consult your BMW

center. Since the battery is absolutely

maintenance-free, the following is for

your information only.<

Symbols

You will find the following symbols on

your vehicle battery. For your safety,

please be cautious whenever you work

with or near the battery.

Before handling the battery,

please read the following infor-

mation.

Wear eye protection. Do not al-

low particles containing battery

acid or lead to come into con-

tact with your eyes, your skin, or your

clothing.

Battery acid is extremely corro-

sive. Wear eye protection and

protective gloves. Do not tip the

battery. Battery acid can leak from the

ventilation openings.

Do not allow children to have

access to batteries and battery

acid.

Never allow sparks or open

flame near the battery. Do

not smoke in the vicinity of the

battery. Avoid sparks from electrical

cables or electrical equipment. Turn the

key to position 0 in the steering lock

when disconnecting or connecting the

battery. Never short-circuit the battery

terminals. This creates a risk of injury

from high-energy sparks.

A highly explosive gas is gener-

ated when the battery is

charged.

If you happen to get acid in

your eyes, rinse thoroughly for

15 minutes with clear water.

Consult a physician immediately. If you

get acid spray on your skin or clothing,

rinse with plenty of water. If acid is

accidentally swallowed, consult a

physician immediately.

In order to protect the battery

case from ultraviolet radiation,

do not place it in direct sunlight.

A discharged battery can freeze. Store

the battery in areas where temperature

remains above freezing.

Removal and installation

Do not disconnect the battery

while the engine is running.

Disconnecting the battery cable when

the engine is running will cause a

voltage surge which will damage the

vehicle's onboard electronics.

Do not make any modifications in the

wires to the positive terminal. If you do

so, the protective function of the safety

battery terminal is no longer ensured.

Repairs and disposal may only be per-

formed by specially trained personnel.<

When removing the battery, disconnect

the cable on the negative terminal first,

then the cable on the positive terminal.

Loosen the center adjusting screw on

the battery retaining strap (use the

screwdriver included with the onboard

tool kit) and disconnect the strap.

When installing a battery, connect the

positive terminal first, then connect the

negative terminal.

When installing a battery, be sure

that it is mounted properly and that

the retaining strap is installed using the

center adjustment screw, otherwise, the

battery will not be secure enough in

case of an accident.<
