Battery Care

If your car is driven only for short distances of

less than 10 miles over a prolonged period of

time, without an occasional drive at highway

speeds, the engines charging system will not

maintain the battery. Insufficient use of the vehi-

cle could result in short term starting problems

and in the long term could damage the battery.

In case the car is not operated for several weeks

it is advisable to:

a. consider using a proper trickle charger, fol-

lowing the charger manufacturers instruc-

tions, to maintain the batterys state of

charge; or

b. consult your BMW center regarding battery

removal. Once removed, the battery must be

charged and stored in a cool, dry place

where it can be protected from freezing. If

the battery will be stored for over 3 months,

it must be recharged every 3 months, or else

it will become damaged and useless.

Please consult with your BMW center for further

guidance and information.

Corrosion Protection

Extensive corrosion protection measures imple-

mented by BMW now make it possible to offer a

twelve-year unlimited milage anti-corrosion war-

ranty against rust perforation on your vehicle

provided that the vehicle is maintained in accor-

dance with the provisions of the New Vehicle

Limited Warranty as outlined in the Warranty

Section of this Booklet (page 33).

The major degree of corrosion protection is due

to the electrophoretic dip painting process

which cathodically deposits paint particles on all

body parts, attracting paint particles into the

minutest cavities or seams. Body parts are

designed to provide optimum corrosion

protection.

During manufacture, exterior body parts receive

an additional corrosion protection coat. Hood,

trunk, doors and other body parts are coated

with PVC and sealed from the outside.

All floor panels receive a resilient coating of PVC

for maximum protection against damage due to

stones, etc.

Corrosion protection materials tested over many

years are applied to the surfaces of cavities and

to the entire underside of the vehicle during and

after assembly.

Requirements for maintaining the 12-year unlim-

ited mileage anti-corrosion warranty are outlined

in the Warranty Section of this Booklet (page

35).

Restoring corrosion protection

Please take care that anti-corrosion material is

replaced when your car is repaired after body or

chassis damage.

BMW will not accept any liability for any

parts and accessories not approved by

BMW.
