Battery Care

If your X5 is driven only for short distances of less

than 10 miles over a prolonged period of time,

without an occasional drive at highway speeds,

the engine’s charging system will not maintain

the battery. Insufficient use of the SAV could

result in short term starting problems and in the

long term could damage the battery.

In case your X5 is not operated for more than four

weeks it is advisable to:

a. consider using a proper trickle charger, follow-

ing the charger manufacturer’s instructions, to

maintain the battery’s state of charge; or

b. consult your BMW SAV center regarding bat-

tery removal. Once removed, the battery must

be charged and stored in a cool, dry place

where it can be protected from freezing. If the

battery will be stored for over 3 months, it

must be recharged every 3 months, or else it

will become damaged and useless.

Please consult with your BMW SAV center for

further guidance and information.

Corrosion Protection

Extensive corrosion protection measures imple-

mented by BMW now make it possible to offer a

twelve-year limited mileage anti-corrosion war-

ranty against rust perforation on your SAV pro-

vided that the SAV is maintained in accordance

with the provisions of the New SAV Limited War-

ranty as outlined in the Warranty Section of this

Statement (page 30).

The major degree of corrosion protection is due

to the electrophoretic dip painting process which

cathodically deposits paint particles on all body

parts, attracting paint particles into the minutest

cavities or seams. Body parts are designed to

provide optimum corrosion protection.

During manufacture, exterior body parts receive

an additional corrosion protection coat. Hood,

trunk, doors and other body parts with metal

folds are coated with PVC and sealed from the

outside.

All floor panels receive a resilient coating of PVC

for maximum protection against damage due to

stones, etc.

Corrosion protection materials tested over many

years are applied to the surfaces of cavities and

to the entire underside of the vehicle during and

after assembly.

Requirements for maintaining the twelve-year

unlimited mileage anti-corrosion warranty are

outlined in the Warranty Section of this Booklet

(page 31).

Restoring corrosion protection

Please take care that anti-corrosion material is

replaced when your car is repaired after body or

chassis damage.

BMW will not accept any liability for any parts

and accessories not approved by BMW.
