Protect valve stems and valves from dirt 
using screw-on valve stem caps. Dirt in 
the valve stems frequently leads to slow 
leaks. 

The vehicle jack is designed for 
changing wheels only. Do not 

attempt to raise another vehicle model 
with it or to raise any load of any kind. 
To do so could cause accidents and 
personal injury. 
To ensure safety, always have the lug 
bolts checked with a calibrated torque 
wrench as soon as possible to ensure 
that they are tightened to the speci-
fied torque. The tightening torque is 
101 lb-ft/140 Nm.

order opposite that for removal. 

Before removing the support rod, 
be sure that the tailgate is held

After you remove the rod, close the tail-
gate carefully. Continue to hold it firmly 
until it is completely closed.

If light-alloy wheels other than Genuine 
BMW light-alloy wheels have been 
mounted, it may be necessary to use 
different lug bolts for those wheels. 

Replace the defective tire as soon as 
possible and have the new wheel/tire 
balanced. 

Do not exceed a speed of 
130 mph/210 km/h, as otherwise 

accidents may occur due to tire dam-
age.

With certain wheel-and-tire com-
binations the size of the spare 

wheel differs from that of the other 
wheels. However, to restore the original 
state, the normal wheel should be 
remounted as soon as possible.

tion for transport and storage. Always
