Resetting a maintenance operation in the vehicle

NOTE: First perform the maintenance operation.

A maintenance operation must only ever be reset after it has been performed.

NOTE: Perform a reset after instruction.

The resetting process is interrupted it the time is exceeded or if a terminal is changed.

On the vehicle, maintenance operations can be reset at the instrument cluster. Here, the availability of the maintenance operation is reset to 100% (corresponds to new part).

Availability is an internal computing value (not visible for the user).

The following sequence must be observed if you are resetting with the trip meter reset button:

Switch on terminal 15.
Press and hold the trip meter reset button for approx. 10 seconds until the 1st maintenance service appears in the LCD display.
The upper display in the speedometer is lit up by a symbol (example: an oil can is the symbol for an oil change).
The lower display in the speedometer shows the time or distance remaining until the next service is due (example: 14, 000).

Scroll by repeatedly pressing the on-board computer button.
To reset, press the on-board computer button on the turn-signal/main-bean switch and hold it until the word "RESET" appears in the lower display.
Pressing the on-board computer button again will reset the service shown n the upper display.
Repeat this procedure for every service that is to be reset.

NOTE: Resetting increases the service counter.

Each reset increases the service counter for the operation concerned by 1. The service counter is used in SAM for operation-specific control of additional work.

NOTE: Sorting is chronological.

The order of maintenance operations is chronologically sorted. The most critical item is displayed first.

NOTE: Vehicle inspection and emissions test vary from country to country.

The intervals stipulated locally by law are encoded with the BMW diagnosis system.
