All passenger car tires must conform to
Federal Safety Requirements in addition

to these grades.

Tread wear

The tread wear grade is a comparative rating
based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a specified gov-
ernment test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and one-half, 1

γ, times as well on the govern-

ment course as a tire graded 100. The relative
performance of tires depends upon the actual
conditions of their use, however, and may
depart significantly from the norm due to varia-
tions in driving habits, service practices and dif-
ferences in road characteristics and climate.

Traction

The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are
AA, A, B and C.
Those grades represent the tire's ability to stop
on wet pavement as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test sur-
faces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C
may have poor traction performance.

The traction grade assigned to this tire is
based on straight-ahead braking traction

tests, and does not include acceleration, cor-
nering, hydroplaning, or peak traction charac-
teristics.

Temperature

The temperature grades are A, the highest, B
and C, representing the tire’s resistance to the
generation of heat and its ability to dissipate
heat when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to degenerate and reduce
tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to
sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to
a level of performance which all passenger car
tires must meet under the Federal Motor Vehi-
cle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A
represent higher levels of performance on the
laboratory test wheel than the minimum
required by law.

The temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is properly

inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading, either sep-
arately or in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure.

RSC: Run-Flat Tires

Run-Flat tires are labeled on the sidewall with a
circular symbol containing the letters RSC.
Refer to page

M+S

Winter and all-season tires.
These have better winter performance proper-
ties than summer tires.

Tire condition

Inspect your tires frequently for tread wear,
signs of damage and for foreign objects lodged
in the tread. Check the tread depth.

Minimum tread depth

The tread depth should not drop below 1/8 in/
3 mm, although, for example, European legisla-
tion only specifies a minimum tread depth of
1/16 in/1.6 mm. At tread depths below 1/8 in/
3 mm there is an increased risk of high-speed
hydroplaning, even when only small amounts of
water are present on the road surface.
When winter tires wear down past a tread depth
of 1/6 in/4 mm, they become perceptibly less
suitable for winter conditions. In the interest of
safety, new tires should be installed.

Wear indicators in the base of the tread groove
are distributed around the tire's circumference;

eels

and

tire

the letters TWI, for Tread Wear Indicator, on the
tire's sidewalls identify tires that incorporate
these wear indicators. Once the tire tread has
worn down to the wear indicators, the tire has
worn to a depth of 1/16 in/1.6 mm.

Wheel/tire damage

Due to low-profile tires, please note that
wheels, tires and suspension parts are

more susceptible to road hazards and conse-
quential damages.

Unusual vibrations encountered during normal
vehicle operation can indicate tire failure or
some other vehicle malfunction. This can, for
example, be caused by driving over curbs. The
same applies to any other abnormal road
behavior, such as pulling severely to the right or
left.

In these cases, reduce speed immedi-
ately and have wheels and tires thor-

oughly checked. To do so, drive carefully to the
nearest BMW Center or tire shop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel. If necessary,
have the vehicle towed there.
Tire damage can be extremely dangerous for
vehicle occupants and other road users.

Tire age

For various reasons, such as the development
of brittleness, BMW recommends tire replace-
ment after no more than 6 years, regardless of
the actual wear of the tires.
The date on which the tire was manufactured is
indicated by the code on the sidewall:
DOT … 5005 indicates that the tire was manu-
factured in week 50 of the year 2005.

Run-Flat Tires

The symbol identifying Run-Flat Tires is a circle
with the letters RSC on the sidewall.
Run-Flat Tires comprise a conditionally self-
supporting tire and a special rim. The reinforce-
ment in the sidewalls ensures that the tire can
continue to be used subject to certain restric-
tions, even if depressurized.
For information on continuing to drive with a flat
tire, refer to Flat tire warning on page

Wheel and tire replacement

Have new wheels and tires installed only
by your BMW Center or tire shop that

works according to BMW repair procedures
with correspondingly trained personnel. Work
that is improperly carried out could result in
consequential damage and pose safety haz-
ards. Make sure that the new wheels are bal-
anced.

Retreaded tires

BMW advises against using retreaded
tires, since driving safety may be

impaired. The causes for this include potentially
different tire casing structures and often wide
variations in tire age, which can result in a lim-
ited service life.

Correct wheels and tires

BMW recommends using only wheels
and tires that have been approved by

BMW for your particular vehicle model, other-
wise body contact and serious accidents can
result despite the use of the same nominal size,
e.g. due to manufacturing tolerances. If non-

Online Edition for Part-No. 01 41 0 012 083 - © 04/06 BMW AG

approved wheels and tires are used, BMW can-
not evaluate their suitability, and therefore can-
not be held liable for driving safety.

You can inquire about the correct wheel/tire
combination at your BMW Center.
The correct combination of wheels and tires is
also necessary to ensure reliable operation of
various vehicle systems such as ABS and DSC.
To maintain good handling and vehicle
response, only use tires of a single brand and
tread configuration. After a tire has been dam-
aged, for instance, mount the original wheel and
tire combination again as soon as possible.

Recommended tire brands

Certain makes of tire are recommended by
BMW for each tire size. They are marked with a
clearly visible BMW designation on the sidewall
of the tire.
When properly used, these tires meet the high-
est standards in terms of safety and handling
characteristics.

Run-Flat Tires

When mounting new tires or changing over
from summer to winter tires and vice versa,
mount Run-Flat Tires for your own safety. In the
event of a flat, moreover, no spare wheel is
available. Your BMW Center will be glad to pro-
vide you with more information.

For safety reasons, BMW recommends
that damaged Run-Flat Tires be replaced

rather than repaired.

Special characteristics of winter tires

BMW recommends the use of winter tires for
operation under winter road conditions. While

all-season tires with M+S designation provide
better winter traction than summer tires, they
generally do not achieve the full performance of
winter tires.

Pay attention to speed

Always comply with the speed limit for the
winter tires mounted on your car; failure

to do so could result in tire damage and acci-
dents.

If the car is capable of speeds higher than that
permitted for the winter tires, a label stating the
maximum permitted speed for the mounted
tires must be displayed in your field of view.
Specialist tire dealers and your BMW Center
can supply these labels.

Storage

Store tires in a cool, dry place, protecting them
against light whenever possible. Protect the
tires from contact with oil, grease and fuel. Do
not exceed the maximum tire inflation pressure
indicated on the sidewall of the tire.

Snow chains*

Only certain fine-link snow chains have been
tested by BMW, classified as safe for use and
recommended. Consult your BMW Center for
more information. Attach snow chains in pairs
and only to the rear wheels.
Observe the manufacturer's instructions when
mounting snow chains. Do not exceed a speed
of 30 mph/50 km/h when using snow chains.
You are not permitted to mount snow chains to
tires of the following sizes:

255/40 R 17

255/35 R 18

Do not initialize the Flat Tire Monitor if
snow chains are mounted, otherwise the

instrument might issue an incorrect reading.
When driving with snow chains, you may find it
helpful to activate DTC temporarily, refer to
page

Adding engine oil

Do not add the maximum amount of 1 US quart/
1 liter of engine oil until the warning lamp lights
up in the instrument cluster, refer to page

, or

until the oil level monitor shows "+1.0".

Add oil within the next 125 miles/200 km,
otherwise the engine could be dam-

aged.

Keep oils, greases, etc. out of the reach of
children and comply with the warnings on

the containers. Otherwise, health hazards may
result.

Oil change

Have your oil changed only by a BMW Center or
a workshop that works according to BMW
requirements with the appropriately trained
personnel.

Approved engine oils

The quality of the engine oil is extremely impor-
tant for the function and life of an engine. BMW
continuously approves specific oils after con-
firming their suitability for use in its vehicles
with extensive testing.
Only use approved BMW High Performance
Synthetic Oil.
If BMW High Performance Synthetic Oil is not
available, you can add small quantities of other
synthetic oils in between oil changes. Only use
oils with the API SH specification or higher.

Your BMW Center will be glad to answer
any questions regarding BMW High Per-

formance Synthetic Oil or other approved syn-
thetic oils.

You can also call BMW of North America at
1-800-831-1117 or visit the website
www.bmwusa.com to obtain this information.

Do not use any oil additives, as they could
cause engine damage under some cir-

cumstances.

Viscosity classes

Viscosity is a measure of an oil's flow rating and
is categorized in SAE classes.
Selecting the appropriate SAE class depends
on the regional climatic conditions in which you
normally drive your BMW.

Approved oils belong to the 5W-40 and
5W-30 classes.

These oils can be used for driving at all outside
temperatures.

Coolant

Warning lamp

The warning lamp lights up:
The coolant level is too low. Top up the
coolant as soon as possible.

Do not open the cooling system when the
engine is hot. If you do, escaping coolant

can cause burns.

Coolant consists of water and coolant additives.
Not all commercially available additives are suit-
able for your BMW. Your BMW Center knows
which additives are appropriate.

Only use approved additives, otherwise
the engine could be damaged. The addi-

tives are hazardous to health.

Comply with the appropriate environ-
mental protection regulations when dis-

posing of coolant additives.

Checking the coolant level

The engine must be at ambient tempera-
ture.

Turn the cap of the expansion tank a little
counterclockwise to allow any accumulated

pressure to escape, then continue turning
to open.

The coolant level is correct if the upper end
of the red float spindle is at least at the same
level as the upper edge of the filler neck but
no more than 3/4 in or 2 cm above it, i.e. up
to the mark on the float spindle. Refer also
to the diagram next to the filler neck.

If the coolant is low, slowly add coolant up to
the specified level; do not overfill.

Twist the cap back on and tighten it firmly.

Have the cause for the coolant loss
removed as soon as possible.

Brake system

Malfunction

Brake fluid

The warning lamp lights up although
the parking brake is not engaged:
Stop the vehicle immediately.

The brake fluid level in the reservoir is too low.
At the same time, you may notice that brake
pedal travel is longer. Have the system checked
as soon as possible.

If you continue driving, extended brake
pedal travel may be necessary and brak-

ing distances may be significantly longer. Be
sure to adapt your driving style accordingly.

Canadian models display this warning
lamp.

Brake pads

The warning lamp lights up. The brake
pads have worn down to the minimum
safe limit. Have the brake pads

replaced as soon as possible.

For your own safety: only use brake pads
which BMW has approved for your spe-

cific vehicle model. BMW cannot evaluate non-
approved brake pads to determine if they are
suitable for use, and therefore cannot guaran-
tee the operating safety of the vehicle in the
event of their use.

Maintenance

BMW Maintenance System

The BMW Maintenance System helps maintain
the road safety and operating reliability of your
BMW.
Regular maintenance is not only necessary for
the safety of your vehicle, but also plays a sig-
nificant role in maintaining the resale value of
your vehicle.

Service interval display

The BMW Maintenance System takes the vehi-
cle's operating conditions into account for the
service intervals:
From a maintenance point of view,
62,100 miles/100,000 km accumulated in
short-distance urban driving are not the same
as 62,100 miles/100,000 km accumulated at
moderate cruising speeds in long-distance
highway travel.
The BMW Maintenance System includes the
Engine Oil Service and Inspections I and II.
Determining the maintenance intervals based
on the actual loads on the vehicle covers every
kind of operating situation. Minimal use drivers,
who drive fewer than about 6,210 miles/
10,000 km per year, should nevertheless have
the oil changed at least every 2 years since
engine oil deteriorates over time, regardless of
use.

Socket for On-Board

Diagnosis OBD

Vehicle components that are relevant to the
composition of exhaust emissions can be
checked with a device via the OBD socket.
This socket is located on the driver's side to the
left, on the bottom of the instrument panel
underneath a cover.

Maintenance

Exhaust emission values

The warning lamp lights up: the
exhaust emission values have wors-
ened. Have the car checked as soon as

possible.
The lamps flash under certain conditions. This
indicates excessive misfiring of the engine. If
this happens, you should reduce your speed
and visit your nearest BMW Center as soon as
possible. Severe engine misfiring can quickly
lead to serious damage of emissions-related
components, especially the catalytic converter.

Canadian models display this warning
lamp.

If the gas cap is not properly tightened,
the OBD system will assume that fuel

vapor is escaping. An indicator will then light up.
If the cap is then tightened, the indicator will go
out within a few days.

Event Data Recorders

Your vehicle may be equipped with one or sev-
eral measuring or diagnostic modules or a
device for recording or sending certain vehicle
data or information. In addition, if you have
signed a subscription contract for BMW Assist,
certain vehicle data may be transmitted or
recorded in order to facilitate the corresponding
services.

Care

Important information on the care and mainte-
nance of your BMW is contained in the Caring
for your vehicle brochure.

Lamps and bulbs

Lamps and bulbs make an essential contribu-
tion to vehicle safety. They should, therefore,

be handled carefully. BMW recommends hav-
ing your BMW Center perform any work that
you do not feel competent to perform yourself
or that is not described here.

Do not touch the glass portion of a new
bulb with your bare hands since even

small amounts of impurities burn into the sur-
face and reduce the service life of the bulb. Use
a clean cloth, paper napkin or a similar material,
or hold the bulb by its metallic base.

A replacement bulb set is available from your
BMW Center.

When working on electrical systems,
always begin by switching off the corre-

sponding consumers, otherwise short-circuits
could result. To avoid possible injury or equip-
ment damage when replacing bulbs, be sure to
observe any instructions provided by the bulb
manufacturer.

For care and maintenance of the headlamps,
please follow the instructions in the separate
Caring for your vehicle brochure.

If the routine for changing a particular
bulb is not described here, please contact

your BMW Center or a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel.

Light-emitting diodes LEDs

Control elements, display units and other inte-
rior equipment in your vehicle use a light-emit-
ting diode behind a cover as a light source.
These light-emitting diodes, which operate
using a concept similar to that applied in con-
ventional lasers, are officially designated as
Class 1 light-emitting diodes.

Do not remove the covers, and do not
look directly at the unfiltered light for sev-

eral hours. Otherwise, your eyes could suffer
irritation of the retina.

Replacing components

Xenon lamps*

These bulbs have a very long service life and are
unlikely to fail. If one of these bulbs should nev-
ertheless fail, it is possible to continue driving
with great caution using the fog lamps, provided
traffic laws in your area do not prohibit this.

Have work on the xenon lighting system
performed only by your BMW Center or a

workshop that works according to BMW repair
procedures with correspondingly trained per-
sonnel. Due to the high electrical voltages
present, there is a risk of potentially fatal acci-
dents if work is performed inappropriate.

Parking lamps, roadside parking lamps

In the event of a malfunction, please contact
your BMW Center or a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
