Things to remember when driving

Vehicle equipment

In this chapter, all production, country, and

optional equipment that is offered in the model

range is described. As a result, some equip-

ment described may not be available in a

particular vehicle, for example due to the

options or national-market version selected.

This also applies to safety related functions and

systems.

Break-in period

Note the following instructions for your

BMW 1-Series M Coupe that deviate from the

description in the Owner's Manual for Vehicle.

Engine and differential

Always obey all official speed limits.

Up to 1,200 miles/2,000 km

Drive at varying engine and road speeds, but do

not exceed an engine speed of 5,500 rpm and a

road speed of 105 mph/170 km/h.

Do not depress the accelerator all the way.

From 1,200 miles/2,000 km to

3,000 miles/5,000 km

Engine and road speeds can be increased

gradually up to a traveling speed of 135 mph/

220 km/h. Use the maximum speed only for

brief intervals, e.g. when passing.

Transmission

The transmission begins functioning at an

optimal level only after a distance of approx.

300 miles/500 km. Do not exceed engine

speeds of 5,500 rpm during this period.

General driving notes

Clearance

Take into account the limited clearance of

your BMW 1-Series M Coupe, e.g. when

driving into underground parking garages or

over obstacles. Otherwise, the vehicle may be

damaged.<

Braking safely

Hills

To prevent overheating and the resulting

reduced efficiency of the brake system,

drive long or steep downhill gradients in the

gear in which the least braking is required. Even

light but consistent brake pressure can lead to

high temperatures, brake wear and possibly

even brake failure.<

You can increase the engine's braking effect by

shifting down, all the way to first gear if neces-

sary. This strategy helps you avoid placing

excessive loads on the brake system.

Never drive with the clutch held down,

with the transmission in neutral or with

the engine switched off; otherwise, engine

braking action will not be present or there will be

no power assistance to the brakes or steering.

Never allow floor mats, carpets or any other

objects to protrude into the area around the

pedals; otherwise, pedal function could be

impaired.<
