However, BMW NA will not deny your warranty

repair claims solely because you do not have

maintenance records or you did not perform

the required maintenance unless BMW NA

demonstrates that such lack of required

maintenance is a direct cause of the emission

control system failure. The instructions for

required maintenance and use can be found in

the Owner’s Manual and in the Service section

of this Statement.

It is strongly recommended that any replace-

ment parts used for maintenance, repair or

replacement of emission control systems be

genuine BMW Service Parts or BMW Autho-

rized Remanufactured Parts. Without invalidat-

ing this warranty, the owner may elect to have

maintenance, repair or replacement of the

emission control systems performed by any

automotive repair establishment, or elect to

use parts other than BMW Authorized

Remanufactured or genuine BMW Service

Parts. However, the cost of such service or

parts will not be covered under this warranty,

except in emergency situations. In an emer-

gency situation, where an authorized BMW

center is not reasonably available or a

warranty replacement part is not available

within 30 days, repairs may be performed at

any available service establishment or by any

individual using any replacement part.

A repair not completed within 30 days consti-

tutes an emergency. BMW NA will reimburse

the owner for such emergency repairs

(including labor, parts and diagnosis not to

exceed BMW suggested retail price for all

warranted parts replaced and labor charges

based on the manufacturer’s recommended

time allowance for the warranty repair and the

geographically appropriate hourly labor rate)

that are covered under this warranty. Re-

placed parts and paid invoices must be

presented to a BMW center as a condition of

reimbursement for emergency repairs not

performed by a BMW center.

The use of replacement parts, which are not of

equivalent quality, may impair the effective-

ness of emission control systems. If other than

genuine BMW Service Parts or Authorized

Remanu-factured Parts are used for mainte-

nance, repair or replacement of components

affecting emission control, the owner should

obtain assurances that such parts are war-

ranted by their manufacturer to be equivalent

to genuine BMW parts in performance and

durability. BMW NA assumes no liability under

this warranty with respect to parts other than

genuine BMW parts.

However, the use of non-BMW replacement

parts does not invalidate the warranty on other

components, unless non-BMW parts cause

damage to warranted parts.

What is not covered

This warranty does not cover malfunctions

caused by any of the following: accident, flood,

misuse, modification, alteration, tampering,

disconnection, improper or inadequate

maintenance, except if performed by an

authorized BMW center doing warranty repair

work, use of leaded fuel or fuel other than as

specified in the Owner’s Manual.

The replacement of maintenance parts, such

as spark plugs, filters and similar items used in

required maintenance services or the repair or

replacement of maintenance parts beyond the

first replacement interval.

Any car on which the odometer has been

replaced or altered and the true mileage

cannot be determined.

The car, if the vehicle identification number is

altered or cannot be determined, or if the car

has been declared a total loss or sold for

salvage purposes.

General

The warranty gives you specific legal rights,

and you may also have other rights which vary

from state to state.

THE DURATION OF ANY IMPLIED WARRAN-

TIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY

OF MERCHANTABILITY, IS LIMITED TO THE

DURATION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES

HEREIN. BMW OF NORTH AMERICA
