Things to remember when driving

Break-in period

Moving parts need breaking-in time to adjust to

each other. Please follow the instructions below

in order to achieve the optimal service life and

economy of operation for your vehicle.

Engine and differential

Always obey all official speed limits.

Up to 1,200 miles/2,000 km

Attempt to vary both engine and vehicle

speeds, but refrain from exceeding an engine

speed of 4,500 rpm or a driving speed of

100 mph or 160 km/h.

Avoid full-throttle operation and use of the

transmission's kick-down mode.

After 1,200 miles/2,000 km

Engine and vehicle speeds can be gradually

increased.

Sequential manual gearbox SMG

Do not use the acceleration assistant during the

break-in period, page 57.

Tires

Due to technical factors associated with their

manufacture, tires do not achieve their full trac-

tion potential until after an initial break-in

period. Therefore, drive cautiously during the

first 200 miles/300 km.

Brake system

Brakes require an initial break-in period of

approx. 300 miles/500 km to achieve optimized

contact and wear patterns between brake pads

and rotors. Drive cautiously during this break-in

period.

Clutch

The function of the clutch reaches its optimal

level only after a distance driven of approx.

300 miles/500 km. During this break-in period,

engage the clutch gently.

Following part replacement

The same break-in procedures should be

observed if any of the components mentioned

above have to be renewed in the course of the

vehicle's operating life.

General driving notes

Close the luggage compartment lid

Operate the vehicle only when the lug-

gage compartment lid is closed. Other-

wise, exhaust fumes could enter the interior of

the vehicle.<

If special circumstances make it absolutely nec-

essary to drive with the luggage compartment

lid open:

1. Close all windows and the glass sunroof.

2. Increase the air flow rate of the automatic

climate control considerably, refer to

page 99.

Hot exhaust system

In all vehicles, extremely high tempera-

tures are generated in the exhaust sys-

tem. Do not remove the heat shields installed

adjacent to various sections of the exhaust sys-

tem, and never apply undercoating to them.

When driving, standing at idle and while park-

ing, take care to avoid possible contact

between the hot exhaust system and any highly

flammable materials such as hay, leaves, grass,

etc. Such contact could lead to a fire, with the

risk of serious personal injuries and property

damage.<

Mobile phone in the vehicle

BMW discourages the use of mobile

communications devices, e.g. mobile

phones, inside the vehicle without a direct con-
