General information  
Information on service notifications can be dis-  
played on the control display.  
Vehicle features and options  
This chapter describes all standard, country-  
specific, and optional equipment offered with  
the series. It also describes features and func-  
tions that are not necessarily available in the  
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected options or  
country versions. This also applies to safety  
functions and systems. When using these  
functions and systems, the applicable laws  
and regulations must be observed.  
Additional information:  
Service notifications, refer to page 168.  
Service data in the vehicle key  
Information on the service notifications is con-  
tinuously stored in the vehicle key. An author-  
ized service center can read this data out and  
suggest a maintenance scope for the vehicle.  
Therefore, hand the service advisor the vehicle  
key with which the vehicle was driven most  
recently.  
BMW maintenance system  
The maintenance system provides service no-  
tifications and thereby provides support in  
maintaining road safety and the operational  
reliability of the vehicle.  
Stationary periods  
Stationary periods during which the vehicle  
battery was disconnected are taken into ac-  
count.  
In some cases, scopes and intervals of the  
maintenance system may vary according to  
the country version. Replacement work, spare  
parts, fuels and lubricants, and wear materials  
are calculated separately. Further information  
is available from an authorized service center  
or another qualified service center or repair  
shop.  
Have any time-dependent maintenance meas-  
ures, e.g., replacing operating equipment, per-  
formed by an authorized service center or an-  
other qualified service center or repair shop.  
Maintenance Booklet for US  
Models  
Condition Based Service  
Please consult your Maintenance Booklet for  
additional information on the performance of  
service and maintenance work.  
Principle  
Condition Based Service determines the main-  
tenance recommendation using sensors and  
special algorithms that take into account the  
operating conditions of the vehicle.  
The manufacturer of the vehicle recommends  
that maintenance and repair be performed by  
an authorized service center or another quali-  
fied service center or repair shop. Records of  
regular maintenance and repair work should  
be retained.  
The system makes it possible to adapt the  
maintenance measures to your user profile.

Safety information  
Exhaust emissions  
NOTICE  
The warning light illuminates:  
The socket for Onboard Diagnosis is an in-  
tricate component intended to be used in  
conjunction with specialized equipment to  
check the vehicle’s primary emissions sys-  
tem. Improper use of the socket for Onboard  
Diagnosis, or contact with the socket for On-  
board Diagnosis for other than its intended  
purpose, can cause vehicle malfunctions and  
creates risks of personal and property dam-  
age. As such, it is strongly recommended that  
access to the diagnostic socket be limited to  
an authorized service center or another quali-  
fied service center or repair shop, or other  
persons who have specialized training and  
equipment and who are able to use the diag-  
nostic socket correctly.  
Worsening exhaust emissions, e.g.,  
due to an incorrectly fitted fuel cap.  
Have the vehicle checked as soon  
as possible.  
The warning light flashes under certain cir-  
cumstances:  
This indicates that there is excessive misfir-  
ing in the engine.  
Reduce the vehicle speed and have the ve-  
hicle checked immediately; otherwise, se-  
rious engine misfiring within a brief pe-  
riod can seriously damage emission control  
components, in particular the catalytic con-  
verter.  
Have the vehicle checked by an authorized  
service center or another qualified service cen-  
ter or repair shop.
