Chassis and suspension tuning
You can choose between two types of chassis 
and suspension tuning.
>
Normal:
The comfortable basic setting offers opti-
mum comfort when traveling.
>
Sport:
The sporty basic setting offers increased 
driving agility.
Selecting chassis and suspension 
tuning
Press the button. 
The system switches between the two chassis 
and suspension tuning settings.
>
Sport:
The LED in the button lights up and SPORT 
is displayed in the instrument panel.
>
Normal:
The LED in the button goes out.
The selection of the chassis and suspension 
tuning setting is stored for the remote control 
currently in use.
Starting assistant
The starting assistant enables you to start off 
conveniently on slopes. The parking brake is 
not required for this purpose.
1.
Hold the vehicle with the footbrake.
2.
Release the footbrake and immediately 
drive off quickly.
The starting assistant holds the vehicle 
for approx. 2 seconds after releasing the 
footbrake. Depending on the load, the vehicle 
may also roll back slightly during this time. 
After releasing the footbrake, immediately start 
quickly, otherwise the starting assistant no 
longer holds the vehicle after approx. 2 seconds 
and it begins to roll back.

Self-leveling suspension*
Malfunction
The warning lamp for self-leveling 
suspension lights up yellow and a 
message is shown on the Control 
Display. A malfunction has occurred in the self-
leveling suspension. Stop and check the vehi-
cle. If it is considerably lower at the rear than at 
the front, and possibly also on one side – rear 
left compared to rear right –, proceed to the 
nearest BMW Sports Activity Vehicle Center or 
a workshop that works according to BMW 
repair procedures with correspondingly trained 
personnel. Drive with appropriate caution in the 
meantime. The vehicle has reduced ground 
clearance and driving comfort may be notice-
ably reduced. Even if the orientation of the vehi-
cle is normal, when a malfunction is indicated 
on the display, you should proceed to the near-
est BMW Sports Activity Vehicle Center or a 
workshop that works according to BMW guide-
lines and uses appropriately trained personnel.
FTM Flat Tire Monitor
The concept
The Flat Tire Monitor detects a pressure loss in 
one tire by comparing the speeds of the individ-
ual wheels during driving.
In the event of a pressure loss, there is a change 
in the rolling circumference and therefore the 
rotation speed of the corresponding wheel. The 
system detects this change and reports it as a 
flat tire.
