Giving and receiving assistance

Your BMW has a special nut as body ground
or negative pole.

5.

Attach the second terminal clamp of the
minus/– jumper cable to the negative termi-
nal of the battery or to the engine or body
ground 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 slightly
increased idle speed.

2.

Start the engine on the other vehicle in the
usual way.
If the first start attempt is not successful,
wait a few minutes before another attempt
in order to allow the discharged battery to
recharge.

3.

Let the engines run for a few minutes.

4.

Disconnect the jumper cables by reversing
the above connecting sequence.

If necessary, have the battery checked and
recharged.

Never use spray fluids to start the
engine.

<

Tow-starting, towing away

Observe the applicable laws and regula-
tions for tow-starting and towing vehi-

cles.

<

Do not transport any passengers other
than the driver in a vehicle that is being

towed.

<

Using a tow fitting

The screw-in tow fitting must always be carried
in the car. It can be screwed in at the front or
rear of the BMW.
It is stored in the onboard tool kit underneath
the cover on the right-hand side of the cargo
bay, refer to page

117

.

Use only the tow fitting provided with the
vehicle and screw it all the way in. Use the

tow fitting for towing on paved roads only. Avoid
lateral loading of the tow fitting, e.g. do not lift
the vehicle by the tow fitting. Otherwise the tow
fitting and the vehicle could be damaged.

<

Being towed

Check that the car is radio-ready and that
the electric steering wheel lock is not

engaged, otherwise the car would not be steer-
able. If the electrical system fails, do not
attempt to tow-start or tow away the car. The
electric steering wheel lock cannot be disen-

gaged and the car is not steerable. Jump start-
ing, refer to page

123

.

Power steering assistance is not available when
the engine is not running. Thus, braking and
steering will require increased effort.

<

Switch on the hazard warning flashers, depend-
ing on local regulations.

Manual transmission

Gearshift lever in idle position.

Automatic transmission

Selector lever in position N.
Changing selector lever positions, refer to
page

44

.

Do not exceed a towing speed of 45 mph
or 70 km/h and a towing distance of

90 miles/150 km, otherwise the automatic
transmission may be damaged.

<

Towing methods

In come countries, it is illegal to tow your vehicle
with a tow bar or tow rope on public highways.
Please familiarize yourself with the relevant
towing regulations for the country in which you
are driving.

With a tow bar

The towing vehicle must not be lighter
than the towed vehicle, otherwise it may

be impossible to maintain control.

<

The tow fittings used should be on the same
side on both vehicles. Should it prove impossi-
ble to avoid mounting the tow bar at an angle,
please observe the following:

>

Clearance and maneuvering capability will
be sharply limited during cornering.

>

The tow bar will generate lateral forces if it is
attached offset.

Attach the tow bar to the tow fittings only,
as attaching it to other parts of the vehicle

could result in damage.

<

With a tow rope

When starting off in the towing vehicle, make
sure that the tow rope is taut.

To avoid jerking and the associated
stresses on vehicle components when

towing, always use nylon ropes or nylon straps.
Attach the tow rope to the tow fittings only, as
attaching it to other parts of the vehicle could
result in damage.

<

With a tow truck

328i, 335i

Have the BMW transported with a tow truck
with a so-called lift bar or on a flat bed.

Do not lift the vehicle by a tow fitting or
body and chassis parts, otherwise dam-

age may result.

<

Tow-starting

Avoid tow-starting the vehicle whenever possi-
ble; instead, jump-start the engine, refer to
page

123

. Vehicles with a catalytic converter

should only be tow-started when the engine is
cold; vehicles with an automatic transmission
cannot be tow-started at all.

If the electrical system fails, do not tow or
tow-start the vehicle, as it would be

impossible to release the electric steering-
wheel lock and the vehicle could not be
steered.

<

1.

Switch on hazard warning flashers, comply
with local regulations.

2.

Switch on the ignition, refer to page

41

.

3.

Shift into 3rd gear.
