Replacing components

Onboard tool kit

The onboard tool kit is located in the luggage

compartment under the floor mat.

Replacing wiper blades

1. Fold the wiper arm out and grasp it firmly.

2. Press the locking tabs together while slid-

ing the wiper blade toward the front to dis-

engage it.

3. Insert the new wiper blade and slide it in

until it audibly clicks into place.

Lamps and bulbs

Lamps and bulbs make an essential contribu-

tion to driving safety. You must be duly diligent

in replacing them. If you are not familiar with the

specified procedures, have the corresponding

work carried out at your BMW center.

Never touch the glass on new bulbs with

your bare fingers, as even minute

amounts of contamination will burn into the

bulb's surface and reduce its service life. Use a

clean cloth, napkin, etc., or hold the bulb by its

metal socket.<

A selection of replacement bulbs is available at

your BMW center.

Whenever you perform any work on the

electrical system, turn off the electrical

devices involved to prevent short circuits from

occurring. To avoid possible injury or equip-

ment damage when replacing bulbs, follow any

instructions provided by the bulb manufac-

turer.<

When performing maintenance on the head-

lamps, follow the instructions in the separate

Caring for your vehicle brochure.

For bulbs for which changing is not

described, and for checking and adjusting

headlamp aim, please contact your BMW cen-

ter.<

Light-emitting diodes LEDs

Light-emitting diodes installed behind translu-

cent lenses serve as the light source for many of

the controls and displays in your vehicle. These

light-emitting diodes, which operate using a

concept similar to that applied in conventional

lasers, are officially designated as Class 1 light-

emitting diodes.

Do not remove the covers, and never

stare into the unfiltered light for several

hours, as irritation of the retina could result.<

Xenon lamps

The service life of these lamps is very long and

the probability of a failure is very low, provided

that they are not switched on and off an unusual

number of times. If one of these bulbs should

nevertheless fail, it is possible to continue driv-

ing with great caution using the fog lamps, pro-

vided traffic laws in your area do not prohibit

this.
