Under The Hood - BMW 2006 7 Series Owner's Manual

Under the hood

Never attempt to perform any service or
repair operations on your vehicle without
the required, professional technical training.
If you are unfamiliar with the regulations to be
observed, only have work on your vehicle car-
ried out by a BMW center or a repair shop that
works in accordance with BMW guidelines and
uses appropriately trained personnel. If this
work is not carried out properly, there is a dan-
ger of subsequent damage and related safety
hazards.<

Closing
Close the hood with force. It must be clearly
heard to engage.
Observe the same precautions that apply
to all closing operations by ensuring that
the hood's travel range is clear and unob-
structed before allowing the hood to fall into
position.
If you see any signs that the hood is not com-
pletely closed while you are driving your vehicle,
you should stop at once and close it securely.<
