WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 BMW X6 and 2010 BMW X6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Use by date on can.
Do not use the spray can after the Use by date on the can has expired. After the Use by date the properties of the cavity foam will no longer meet the requirements of the BMW Group.
Cavity sealing of repair area possible after an air drying time of 1 hour.
Backing surface must be
clean and free from

dust,

grease,

oil and stripping agent.
Application temperature at least 15°C. Optimally 20°C.
IMPORTANT: Foam expands many times over as it sets (change in volume).
Before applying to the vehicle, fill a clearly visible cavity of corresponding size with foam on a used part. This enables an optimal dosage (i.e. spraying time) to be specified for filling the cavity on the vehicle with foam.
Tape off open passages to visible areas with adhesive tape to prevent foam from escaping.
Setting takes approx. 30 minutes. Mechanical processing (e.g. drilling, cutting, etc.) is then possible.
Cavity sealing of repair area possible after an air drying time of 1 hour.
Remove fresh, non-hardened PU foam with adhesive cleaner 208.
Sourcing reference: BMW Parts Service.

Hardened PU foam can only be removed by mechanical means (machine).
Excess, hardened PU foam can be disposed of as residual waste.
Cans which are not entirely empty and unused whose Use by date has expired are classed as hazardous waste.

Observe country-specific waste-disposal regulations.
Observe the manufacturer's application instructions (printed on the can).
