About this Owner's Manual
 
We have made every effort to ensure 
that you are able to find what you need 
in this Owner's Manual as quickly as 
possible. The fastest way to find certain 
topics is by using the detailed index at 
the end. If you desire an initial overview 
of your vehicle, this can be found in the 
first chapter.
Should you wish to sell your BMW at 
some time in the future, please 
remember to hand over the Owner's 
Manual to the new owner; it is an 
important part of the vehicle.
If you have any questions, your 
BMW Sports Activity Vehicle center 
will be glad to advise you.

The individual vehicle
 
On buying your BMW, you have 
decided in favor of a model with individ-
ualized equipment and features. This 
Owner's Manual describes all models 
and equipment that BMW offers within 
the same group.
We hope you will understand that 
equipment and features are included 
that you might not have chosen for your 
vehicle. Any differences can easily be 
identified, since all optional extras and 
special equipment are marked with an 
asterisk

.
If your BMW features equipment which 
is not described in this Owner's 
Manual, Supplementary Owner's Man-
uals are enclosed. We ask you to read 
these manuals as well.
