Engine and differential The first 1,250 miles/2,000 km: Constantly vary both vehicle and engine speeds, remembering not to exceed 4,500 rpm and/or vehicle speeds of over 100 mph / 160 km/h: Always obey all official speed limits.
handbook.book Page 109 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM Antilock Brake System (ABS) Brakes: do not drive with your foot resting on the brake pedal. Even light but consistent pressure on the brake pedal can lead to high temperatures, accelerated brake wear and possibly even brake failure. Hydroplaning: when driving on wet or slushy roads, reduce your speed. If you do not, a wedge of water may form between tires and road surface.
handbook.book Page 110 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM 110 Brake system Brake fluid level If the brake fluid level is too low and brake pedal travel has become longer, there may be a defect in one of the brake system's hydraulic circuits. If the brake rotors are corroded, they will tend to respond to braking with a pulsating effect that even extended brake applications will fail to cure.
handbook.book Page 111 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM Wheels and tires Tire condition It is not merely the tire's service life, but also driving comfort and – above all else – driving safety that depend on the condition of the tires and the maintenance of the specified tire inflation pressure. Be sure to check the tire inflation pressure, including the spacesaver spare tire or the spare tire, on a regular basis, at least twice a month and before every extended journey, refer to page 24.
handbook.book Page 112 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM 112 Tire condition Tire replacement ceed carefully to the nearest BMW center or professional tire center, or have the vehicle towed in to have it, its wheels or its tires inspected. Tire damage up to and including sudden and complete air loss can endanger the lives of both the vehicle occupants and other road users.

For example: Tread wear 200 Traction AA Temperature A BMW advises against using retreaded tires, since driving safety may be impaired.
handbook.book Page 114 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM 114 Wheel and tire combinations Winter tires The right choice Choosing the right tire BMW recommends using only wheels and tires that have been approved by BMW for your particular vehicle model, as otherwise body contact and serious accidents can result despite the use of the same nominal size, e.g. due to manufacturing tolerances.
handbook.book Page 115 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM Winter tires Snow chains* BMW has assessed the safe performance of certain specific tire brands and approved them for use. Consult any BMW center for details. BMW recommends using approved fine-link snow chains only. Use them inpairs on either summer or winter tires, but only on both rear wheels. Comply with all manufacturer's safety precautions when mounting the chains. Do not exceed a speed of 30 mph / 50 km/h when using snow chains.

handbook.book Page 121 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM Engine oil While you should wait until the level has dropped to just above the lower mark before adding oil, you should never allow the oil level to fall below this mark. BMW engines are designed to operate without oil additives; the use of additives could lead to damage in some cases. This also applies to the manual transmission, the automatic transmission, the differential, and the power steering system.
handbook.book Page 122 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM 122 Coolant Do not add coolant to the cooling system when the engine is hot. If you attempt to do so, escaping coolant can cause burns. Antifreeze and anti-corrosion agents are hazardous to health. You should always store them in their closed original containers and in a location which is out of reach of children. Antifreeze and anti-corrosion agents are inflammable. For this reason, do not spill them on hot engine parts.
handbook.book Page 123 Tuesday, July 30, 2002 12:16 PM Brake fluid Adding brake fluid For adding brake fluid or for determining and correcting the cause of brake fluid loss, consult your BMW center. Your BMW center is familiar with the specifications for factory-approved brake fluids – DOT 4. Brake fluid loss may result in extended brake pedal travel. Refer to the information on page 110. Comply with the applicable environmental laws regulating the disposal of brake fluid.
