About this Owner's Manual
In compiling this Owner's Manual we have
made every effort to furnish you with a
convenient reference source affording
quick access to all the essentials. The fast-
est way to find detailed information on any
specific subject is to turn to the compre-
hensive index at the back of the manual. If
you wish to gain an initial overview of your
vehicle, you will find this in the first chap-
ter.
Should you wish to sell your MINI at some
time in the future, please remember to
hand over this Owner's Manual to the new
owner; it is an important part of the vehi-
cle.
If you have any additional questions, your
MINI Dealer will be glad to advise you.

Your individual vehicle
The manufacturer of your MINI is the Bay-
erische Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft,
BMW AG.
On purchasing your MINI, you have decided
in favor of a model with individualized
equipment and features. This Owner's
Manual describes the entire array of
options and equipment that the manufac-
turer of your MINI makes available with a
specific model range.
We hope you will understand that equip-
ment and features are included that you
might not have chosen for your vehicle. To
assist you in identifying possible variations
between your own vehicle and the man-
ual's contents, the passages describing
optional accessories and special equipment
are marked with an asterisk
*
.
If your MINI features equipment that is not
described in this Owner's Manual – a car
radio, for instance – we have enclosed addi-
tional operating instructions. We ask you to
read these manuals as well.
