BMW SERVICE
BMW recommends you have your maintenance and repair work performed by
an authorized BMW center.
MAINTAINING YOUR BMW i4 AND iX VEHICLE
A well-maintained vehicle will help safeguard its operational performance,
road-safety and its reliability. This is why it is important to follow and perform
BMW’s recommended periodic vehicle inspections and maintenance service
tasks as indicated by your vehicle’s Maintenance Service Display, along with
the other maintenance work described in this booklet.
Damage, including consequential damage, which results from lack of or
improper maintenance is not covered under the BMW New Vehicle
Limited Warranty for Passenger Cars and Light Trucks.
MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
Maintenance intervals on motor vehicles were conventionally based solely on
a fixed time period or a specified amount of accumulated driving mileage.
However, operational and driving conditions have a major influence on your
vehicle’s routine maintenance requirements; the distance traveled is only
one of these significant factors. A vehicle used for short trips in the city with
numerous cold starts, prolonged periods of idling, stop-and-go driving, and
high electric motor or combustion engine speeds during acceleration may
require more frequent maintenance intervals than a vehicle that is driven long
distances at moderate engine speeds.
Your BMW vehicle uses sensors and algorithms together with the elapsed
time and the driving distance/profile to monitor and evaluate your vehicle’s
maintenance service needs. This information is then used to adapt
dynamically the parameters used to forecast the applicable maintenance
service task intervals. Vehicle maintenance and service needs are based on
this input, with the system name Condition Based Service (CBS).

2
THE BMW MAINTENANCE SYSTEM
All BMW vehicles are equipped with an integrated BMW Maintenance
System. This maintenance “reminder” system helps ensure that the vehicle
inspections and maintenance service tasks are performed at the forecasted
intervals that apply to your vehicle.
The BMW Maintenance System display provides the vehicle operator access
to the current status information for the following maintenance service tasks:
ZVehicle check (date and miles)
ZFront brake pads (miles)
ZRear brake pads (miles)
ZBrake fluid (date)
For each specific maintenance service task, either the future date (month/
year), remaining miles or both are provided as noted above. The system
monitors variable inputs to forecast the intervals and alert the driver when
one or more specific maintenance tasks should be performed.
NOTE: The status of the front and rear brake pads will only be observable in
the maintenance system’s display when there are approximately 2,000 miles
or less remaining before a brake service will be required to be performed.
For information about the vehicle’s maintenance system displays, please
refer to the Maintenance Service Display Overview section beginning on
page 4.
The following maintenance service tasks may be identified as needing to
be performed with a specific occurrence of the Vehicle Check service task
(service counter number):
ZCabin microfilter(s)
Although this item does not appear in the BMW Maintenance System’s
display in the vehicle, these services should be performed in accordance with
the interval identified by your vehicle’s BMW Maintenance System.
For more information on your vehicle’s maintenance services requirements
procedures, and intervals, please refer the Maintenance Service Summary
section beginning on page 7.
The BMW Maintenance System also includes an option to set service
reminders for the following state-specific mandatory vehicle inspections,
including:
ZVehicle safety inspection

3
The corresponding interval data for these inspections can be inputted into the
BMW Maintenance System by a service provider; they are not determined by
the vehicle.
For your convenience, you may also wish to have your authorized BMW center
perform the work necessary to fulfill these state inspection requirements in
your area concurrent with the maintenance services specified above when
possible.
Should you request more frequent maintenance service than is indicated
by the BMW Maintenance System during the coverage period, the cost of
these services will not be covered by the BMW Maintenance Program.
SERVICE DATA — REMOTE CONTROL KEY
Maintenance service task status information for your BMW vehicle is
continually updated and stored in your remote-control key.
Your authorized BMW center can access this data and consult with you about
applicable service procedures and tasks for your vehicle.
Therefore, always provide your service consultant with the most recent
remote-control key that was used to operate the vehicle when servicing your
vehicle at a BMW center.
VEHICLE STORAGE
Disconnecting the battery during periods of long-term vehicle storage will
interrupt the calculation of time-dependent maintenance services.
In this situation, BMW recommends that you have all your time-based
maintenance services, such as brake fluid and cabin microfilter, brought up to
the correct date by an authorized BMW center.
LONG-TERM RATED FLUIDS AND OILS
The following systems and assemblies are factory-filled with long-term rated
fluid and oil; fluid replacement is only necessary when repairs are being
performed (unless otherwise noted):
ZElectrical machine cooling system (antifreeze/coolant)
ZAutomatic transmission

4
REGULAR CHECKS — VEHICLE OPERATOR
In addition to the maintenance service procedure information contained in
this booklet, BMW recommends that you regularly check (when recharging,
for example), and address when necessary, the following items:
ZWasher fluid level
ZCoolant level
ZBrake fluid level
ZTires — pressure, condition and wear
Please refer to the Owner’s Manual for additional information.

pertinent vehicle and servicing data will be available, and a customized
maintenance checklist is printed out based on the specific operations called
for by the Condition Based Service.

intervals of either time, mileage or after performing a specified number
of previous services. These intervals correspond to the latest information
