Battery
The cap is located correctly if the
M of the BMW badge is over a
raised section on the wheel stud when
pressed on.
<
The code number is embossed on the
front of the adapter. Please make a
careful note of this number and keep it
in a safe place, in case the adapter is
lost.
Maintenance
The battery needs no routine mainte-
nance whatsoever, in other words the
quantity of acid it contains will normally
last for the full operating life of the
battery in temperate climates.
Please address all queries
concerning the battery to BMW
Service. As the battery is absolutely
maintenance-free, the following infor-
mation is provided for reference only.
<
Do not disconnect battery leads
while the engine is running, other-
wise excess current will destroy the
vehicle electronics unit.
<
Recharging the battery
Recharge the battery only with the
engine stopped, via the connections in
the engine compartment (see "Starting
with a flat battery", page 173).
Dispose of old batteries only at an
authorised collecting point or
return them to BMW Service. Batteries
filled with acid should be transported
and stored upright. Protect batteries
against falling over when in transit.
