Do not add 1 US quart/liter of oil until a corre-
sponding message is shown on the Control Dis-
play.

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

aged.

Continuous exposure to used oil has
caused cancer in laboratory testing.

For this reason, any skin areas that come into
contact with oil should be thoroughly washed
with soap and water.
Keep oil, grease etc. out of reach of children and
observe the warnings on the containers to pre-
vent health risks.

Oil change

Only have an oil change carried out by a BMW
Sports Activity Vehicle Center or a workshop
that works in accordance with BMW guidelines
and uses appropriately trained personnel.
