ity and safety standards. In rare cases, there-

series. Therefore, this Owner's Manual also
describes and illustrates equipment, systems
and functions that are not available in a vehi-
cle, for example due to the following situations:

Warranty
The vehicle is technically configured for the
operating conditions and registration require-
ments applicable in the country of first delivery,
also known as homologation. If the vehicle is
to be operated in a different country it might
be necessary to adapt the vehicle to potentially
differing operating conditions and registration
requirements. Noncompliance with homologa-
tion requirements in a certain country may
affect warranty coverage. Please consult the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty Booklet for fur-
ther information on warranty matters.
BMW warrants genuine BMW parts and acces-
sories.
BMW does not evaluate whether each individ-
ual product from another manufacturer can be
used with BMW vehicles without presenting a
safety hazard, even if a country-specific official
approval was issued. BMW does not evaluate
whether these products are suitable for BMW
vehicles under all usage conditions.
