has caused cancer in laboratory

testing. For this reason, thoroughly

wash any areas of skin that come into

contact with oil using soap and water.

Always store oils, grease and similar

materials so that they are inaccessible

to children. Comply with warning labels

and information on containers.<

Comply with the applicable envi-

ronmental laws regulating the

disposal of used oil.<

Specified engine oils

The quality of the engine oil is extre-

mely important for the function and life

of an engine. Based on extensive

testing, BMW approves only certain

types of engine oil.

Use only approved "BMW High Perfor-

mance Synthetic Oil."

If you are unable to obtain "BMW High

Performance Synthetic Oil," you may

use small volumes of other approved

synthetic oils for topping up between oil

changes. Use only oils with the specifi-

cation API SH or higher.

Ask your BMW center for details

concerning the specific "BMW

High Performance Synthetic Oil" or

synthetic oils that have been

approved.<
