Maintenance

Vehicle features and
options
This chapter describes all standard, country-spe‐
cific and optional features offered with the series.
It also describes features and functions that are
not necessarily available in your vehicle, e.g., due
to the selected options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related functions and sys‐
tems. When using these functions and systems,
the applicable laws and regulations must be ob‐
served.
BMW maintenance system
The maintenance system provides service notifi‐
cations and thereby provides support in main‐
taining road safety and the operational reliability
of the vehicle.
In some cases, scopes and intervals of the main‐
tenance system may vary according to the coun‐
try version. Replacement work, spare parts, fuels
and lubricants, and wear materials are calculated
separately. Further information is available from a
dealer's service center or another qualified serv‐
ice center or repair shop.
Condition Based Service
CBS
Concept
Sensors and special algorithms take into account
the driving conditions of the vehicle. CBS uses
these to provide maintenance recommendations.
The system makes it possible to adapt the
amount of maintenance corresponding to your
user profile.

General information
Information on service notifications can be dis‐
played on the Control Display.
Additional information:
Service notifications, refer to page 156.
Service data in the vehicle key
Information on the service notifications is contin‐
uously stored in the vehicle key. The service
center can read this data out and suggest a
maintenance scope for the vehicle.
Therefore, hand the service advisor the vehicle
key with which the vehicle was driven most re‐
cently.
Storage periods
Storage periods during which the vehicle battery
was disconnected are not taken into account.
If this occurs, have a dealer's service center or
another qualified service center or repair shop
update the time-dependent maintenance proce‐
dures, such as checking brake fluid and, if neces‐
sary, changing the engine oil and the microfilter/
activated-charcoal filter.
