Vehicle equipment
This Owner’s Handbook describes all models and all the standard, national and optional equipment available for the model range. As a result, this Owner’s Handbook may also contain descriptions and illustrations of equipment and functions which are not installed in your vehicle, for example on account of the optional equipment selected or the national-mar-ket version. This also applies to safety-relevant functions and systems. Please comply with the relevant laws and regulations when using the corresponding functions and systems. If certain equipment and models are not described in this Owner’s Handbook, refer to the Supplementary Owner’s Handbooks provided. In right-hand drive vehicles, some operating elements are arranged differently from those shown in the illustrations.

Production date
The production date of your vehicle can be found at the bottom of the body pillar on the driver’s door. The production date is defined as the calendar month and the calendar year in which the vehi-cle body and the transmission assemblies are joined and the vehicle is driven or moved from the production line.

Status of the Owner’s Handbook

General
The high standards of safety and quality that characterise the vehicles are ensured through ongoing development. On rare occasions, this may mean that the features described in this handbook will vary from those in your vehicle.

For Australia/New Zealand: General
When reading this Owner’s Handbook, please bear the following in mind: to ensure that our vehicles continue to embody the highest quality and safety standards, we pursue a policy of continuous, ongoing development. Because modifications in the design of both vehicles and accessories may be introduced at any time, your own vehicle’s equipment may vary from that described in this manual. For the same reason, it is also impossible to guarantee that all descriptions will be completely accurate in all respects. We must therefore request your understanding of the fact that the manufacturer of your vehicle is unable to recognise legal claims based on discrepancies between the data, illustrations and descriptions in this Owner’s Handbook and your own vehicle’s equipment. Please note, too, that some of the optional equipment described in this Owner’s Handbook is not available on Australian models due to restrictions imposed by Australian Design Rules and other requirements. Should you require any further information, please contact your Service Partner or a qualified specialist workshop, who will be pleased to advise you.

Validity of Owner’s Handbook

Vehicle production
When the vehicle leaves the factory, the contents of the printed Owner’s Handbook are up to date. Any updates introduced after the copy deadline may result in discrepancies between the printed Owner’s Handbook and the Integrated Owner’s Handbook in the vehicle. Notes on updates can be found in the appendix of the printed Owner’s Handbook for the vehicle.

After a software update in the vehicle
After a vehicle software update, for example, via Remote Software Upgrade, the Integrated Owner’s Handbook for the vehicle will contain the latest information.

Your own safety

Intended use
Please comply with the following when using the vehicle:

• Owner’s Handbook.
• Information is attached to the vehicle. Do not remove stickers.
• Technical data of the vehicle.
• The applicable laws and safety standards of the country in which the vehicle is used.
• Vehicle papers and legal documents.

Warranty
The vehicle is technically designed for the operating conditions and approval (homologation) requirements of the country to which it was first delivered. If the vehicle is to be driven in another country, it may need to first be adapted to any different operating conditions and approval requirements prevailing in that country. If the vehicle does not comply with the homologation requirements in a certain country, no warranty claims can be lodged there for the vehicle. Warranty claims may also be invalidated if the electrical system has been modified, for example through the use of con-trol units, hardware, or software which the vehicle manufacturer classifies as unsuitable. An authorised Service Partner is able to provide further information.

Note: in addition to the warranty required by law, the selling Authorised BMW Retailers or the selling BMW AG subsidiaries in Germany grant additional benefits with the purchase of new BMW vehicles within the framework of the BMW Warranty Booklet. More information: www.bmw.de/qualitaetsbrief.

Maintenance and repairs
The advanced technology used in your vehicle, for example, the state-of-the-art materials and high-performance electronics, requires appropriate maintenance and repair methods. The vehicle manufacturer therefore recom-mends having the corresponding work performed by an authorised Service Partner, e.g., a BMW Service branch or Service Partner. If you choose to use a different specialist workshop, BMW recommends using one that performs the corresponding work, such as maintenance and repair, in accordance with BMW specifications and that employs properly trained personnel. In the Owner’s Handbook, facilities of this kind are referred to as “another qualified Service Partner or a specialist workshop”. If work such as maintenance and repair is carried out incorrectly, it could result in subsequent damage with associated safety risks. Incorrectly performed work on the vehicle paintwork can cause components, for example, the radar sensors, to fail or malfunction, resulting in a safety hazard.

Parts and accessories
BMW recommends using parts and accessories that are approved by BMW and are therefore suitable for this purpose. You are recommended to consult a BMW Service Partner for advice on genuine BMW parts and accessories, other BMW-approved products and expert advice on all related matters. The safety and compatibility of these products in conjunction with BMW vehicles have been checked by BMW. BMW accepts product responsibility for genuine BMW parts and accessories. However, BMW cannot accept liability for parts or accessory products of any kind which it has not approved. BMW is unable to assess each third-party product of outside origin as to its suitability for use on BMW vehicles without safety risk. Likewise, no guarantee can be assumed even if the product has been granted official appro-val in a specific country. Tests performed for such approvals cannot always cover all operat-ing conditions for BMW vehicles, and some of them therefore are insufficient.

Vehicle data and data protection

Responsibility and rights

Responsibility for data
Within the scope of data protection directives and legislation, the manufacturer of the vehi-cle is responsible for processing personal data which is collected when the vehicle is used or from web pages, customer support, online services, and marketing campaigns.

Personal identification
Every vehicle has a unique vehicle identification number. Depending on the country, and with the assistance of the relevant authorities, the registered keeper can be identified from the vehicle identification number and the number plate. There are also other ways of tracing data collected in the vehicle back to the driver or registered keeper, for example via the ConnectedDrive account used.

Data protection laws
In accordance with current data protection law, vehicle users have certain rights vis-à-vis the vehicle manufacturer or companies that collect or process their personal data. Vehicle users have a free and comprehensive right of access to their personal data which has been collected and held by organisations.

Such organisations could be:

• Vehicle manufacturer.
• Qualified Service Partners.
• Specialist workshops.
• Service providers.

Vehicle users may request information about what personal data has been saved, what it is used for and where it has come from. Proof of ownership or use is required in order to obtain this information.
The right of access also extends to information about data that has been transferred to other companies or bodies. Please refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s website for the applicable data protection pol-icy. This data protection policy contains information about the right to have data deleted or corrected. The vehicle manufacturer’s website also provides its contact details and those of its data protection officer. The registered keeper can have the data stored in the vehicle read out by an authorised Service Partner, or another qualified Service Partner, or a specialist workshop, for a fee, as necessary. Vehicle data is read out by the socket for on-board diagnosis, which is required by law.
