Connecting the jump leads
Always connect the jump leads in the cor-
rect order, so that no sparks which could
cause injury occur at the battery.
<
Your BMW has a jump-starting connection in
the engine compartment which acts as the bat-
tery's positive terminal, see also Engine com-
partment overview on page
100 . The cap is
marked with +.
1. Pull the cap of the BMW jump-starting con-
nection up to remove.
2. Connect a terminal clamp on the po
jump lead to the positive battery terminal or
a jump-starting connection on the donor
vehicle.
3. Connect the other terminal clamp to the
positive battery terminal or a jump-starting
connection on the vehicle to be started.
4. Connect a terminal clamp on the negative/–
jump lead to the negative battery terminal or
the engine or body earth connection on the
donor vehicle.
Your BMW has a special nut to act as the
body earth or negative terminal.
5. Connect the second terminal clamp to the
negative battery terminal or a ground/earth
connection on the engine or body of the
vehicle to be started.
Starting the engine
1. Start the engine of the donor vehicle and
allow it to run for a few minutes at an
increased idle speed.
2. Start the engine of the other vehicle in the
customary way.
If an initial attempt to start the engine fails,
wait several minutes until the flat battery
has been recharged to a slightly greater
degree.
3. Allow the engines to run for a few minutes.
4. Disconnect the jump leads in the opposite
order from that in which they were originally
attached.
If necessary, have BMW Service check and
recharge the battery.
Do not use any spray products sold as
starting aids.

Tow-starting, towing away
Using towing eye
The screw-in towing eye must always be car-
ried on the car. It can be screwed in at the front
or rear of the BMW.
It is stored in the toolkit underneath the cover
on the right-hand side of the luggage compart-
ment, see page
106 .
To avoid damaging the towing eye and the car,
observe the following rules: use only the towing
eye supplied with the car, and make sure that it
is screwed in fully and is tight. Only use the tow-
ing eye for towing on roads. Avoid lateral loads
on the towing eye, e.g. do not raise the car at the
towing eye.
Access to screw thread
