The high safety and quality standards
of BMW vehicles are maintained by
unceasing development work on
designs, equipment and accessories.
Because of this, your car may differ
from the information supplied in the
Owner's Handbook. Nor can errors and
omissions be entirely ruled out. You are
therefore asked to appreciate that no
legal claims can be entertained on the
basis of the data, illustrations or
descriptions in this handbook.
In cars with right-hand drive,
some controls will be located
differently from those illustrated in this
handbook.

For your own safety
Use only parts and accessory
products which BMW has
approved for your car.
Parts and products which BMW has
approved for your car have been
checked for safety, function and suita-
bility. BMW accepts product liability for
them.
BMW cannot accept liability for parts or
accessory products of any kind which it
has not approved.
BMW is unable to assess each indivi-
dual product of outside origin as to its
suitability for use on BMW vehicles
without safety risk. Nor can suitability
be assured if a specific national permit
(e. g. General Operating Permit) has
been issued or if, for example, an offi-
cial inspection authority (such as the
German TÜV) has approved the
product. These tests cannot always
take into account the full range of
operating conditions applicable to
BMW vehicles and may therefore be
inadequate.
In short, the functional efficiency or
road safety of your BMW, and also its
value, may be affected if its specifica-
tion is altered by installing parts not
approved for it. Original BMW parts and
accessories, other BMW-approved
products and competent advice on all
related matters are obtainable from
BMW Service.
