Storage requirements
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2014 BMW X6, 2013 BMW X6, 2012 BMW X6, 2011 BMW X6, and 2010 BMW X6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The following requirements apply in general to storage in enclosed rooms:
STORAGE REQUIREMENTS
| cool | 15...25 °C/sources of heat screened, or 1 m minimum distance from source of heat |
| dry | Prevent water and condensation Avoid contact with mineral lubrication products |
| dark | Protect from direct sunlight and high-UV artificial light |
| moderate ventilation | Avoid a supply of oxygen and ozone |
In short, the storage room should be cool and dry. It is not necessary to heat the room during the winter. In the summer, the doors and windows should be kept closed to ensure that no air can circulate. In addition, the windows can also be coated with sun protection paint.
The storage room should not contain any working electric machinery, welding equipment, distribution boxes etc. as electrical sparks generate ozone which can have a serious impact on the surface of the tire (ozone cracks).
Tires should not be allowed to come into contact with oil, gasoline, or other mineral lubricants as these dissolve rubber, making the tire porous.
