2005 BMW X3 2.5i 3.0i E83 Owners Manual

Indicator lamp for Canadian models.
Manual transmission
Engaging
The lever engages automatically and the indica-
tor lamp in the instrument cluster lights up from
ignition key position 1.
When shifting into 5th or 6th gear, make
sure that you press the gearshift lever to
the right to prevent inadvertently shifting into
3rd or 4th.
Do not hold the vehicle in place on slopes by
slipping or riding the clutch. Otherwise greater
clutch wear will result.<
Releasing
Reverse
Pull up slightly on the lever, press the button
and lower the lever.
Select only when the vehicle is stationary. Press
the gearshift lever to the left to overcome the
resistance.
If exceptional circumstances should
make it necessary to engage the hand-
brake while the vehicle is in motion, do not pull it
too strongly. In doing so, continuously press the
button of the handbrake lever. Strong applica-
tion of the handbrake can lead to overbraking of
the rear axle and to associated 'fishtailing' of the
vehicle rear end.
As you do this, the backup lamps will turn on
automatically when the ignition key is in posi-
tion 2.
Automatic transmission with
Steptronic
The brake lamps do not light up when the hand-
brake is applied.<
In addition to fully automatic operation, you can
also manually shift with the Steptronic, refer to
page 37.
To prevent corrosion and one-sided brak-
ing action, occasionally engage the hand-
brake lightly when the vehicle is slowly coming
to a stop at a traffic light if the traffic conditions
are suitable.<
