Your vehicle stores this information contin-  
uously in the master key while the vehicle is  
being driven. After accessing the data  
stored in the master key, your BMW Ser-  
vice Advisor can suggest precisely the right  
array of service procedures for your own  
individual vehicle. You should therefore  
hand over to the BMW Service Advisor the  
key you last used to drive when you take  
your vehicle for service.  
The BMW maintenance system supports  
the preservation of the traffic and operating  
safety of your BMW. The service schedule  
also includes operations related to the  
vehicle's comfort and convenience fea-  
tures, such as replacement of the filters for  
the inside air. The ultimate objective is to  
ensure economical maintenance by provid-  
ing the ideal service for your vehicle.  
Make sure the date in the Control  
Center is always set correctly, refer to  
page 74, as otherwise the effectiveness of  
CBS Condition Based Service is not  
ensured.<

Should the day come when you decide to  
sell your BMW, you will find that a complete  
dealer service history is an asset of inesti-  
mable value.  
Please consult your Service and Warranty  
Information Booklet for US models and  
Warranty and Service Guide Booklet for  
Canadian models for additional information  
on service requirements.  
CBS Condition Based Service  
Sensors and special algorithms take the  
different driving conditions of your BMW  
into account. Condition Based Service  
uses this to determine the current and  
future maintenance requirement. By letting  
you define a service and maintenance reg-  
imen that reflects your own individual  
requirements, the system builds the basis  
for trouble-free driving.  
Have service and repair operations  
performed at your BMW center.  
Take the time to ensure that these service  
procedures are confirmed by entries in  
your vehicle's Service and Warranty Infor-  
mation Booklet for US models and War-  
ranty and Service Guide Booklet for Cana-  
dian models. These entries verify that your  
vehicle has received the specified regular  
maintenance, and may also be required  
when submitting warranty claims.<  
The service requirement display, refer to  
page 65, individually displays the time or  
distance remaining for selected mainte-  
nance work and any legally required inter-  
vals:  
> Engine oil  
> Brakes, front and rear separately
