Your BMW is equipped with the convenience 
starting feature. It is sufficient to turn the igni-
tion key only briefly to position 3 and then 
release it right away. The system responds by 
automatically engaging the starter for a certain 
period and allowing it to run until the engine 
starts, after which it then disengages automati-
cally.

Handbrake
The handbrake is primarily intended to prevent 
the vehicle from rolling while parked; it brakes 
the rear wheels.
Indicator lamp
The indicator lamp lights up, and an 
acoustic signal also sounds when start-
ing off. The handbrake is engaged.
Indicator lamp for Canadian models.
Engaging
The lever engages automatically.
Releasing
Pull slightly upward, press the button and lower 
the lever.
If exceptional circumstances should 
make it necessary to engage the hand-
brake while the vehicle is in motion, do not pull it 
too strongly. In doing so, continuously press the 
button of the handbrake lever.
Strong application of the handbrake can lead to 
overbraking of the rear axle and associated 
'fishtailing' of the vehicle rear end.
The brake lamps do not light up when the hand-
brake is engaged.
