Your BMW center will be glad to advise in all matters concerning the battery. Changing wheels Your BMW is equipped with run-flat tires as a standard feature. An immediate wheel change in the event of a flat tire is therefore no longer required. To continue driving with a damaged tire: > With Flat Tire Monitor, refer to Indication of a flat tire, page 86 > With Tire Pressure Monitor, refer to Notification of low tire inflation pressure, page 88 You will recognize run-flat tires by a circular symbol containing the letters RSC on the side of the tire, refer to Run-flat tires on page 200.
