General information Interrupting automatic braking It can be necessary to interrupt automatic braking in certain situations, for instance for an evasive maneuver. Interrupt automatic braking: – By pressing the brake pedal. – By pressing the accelerator pedal.

– During normal brake application, the brake lights light up. – During heavy brake application, the flashers additionally light up.

PostCrash – iBrake

Concept In the event of an accident, the system can bring the vehicle to a halt automatically without intervention by the driver in cer- tain situations. This can reduce the risk of a further collision and the consequences thereof. At standstill After coming to a halt, the brake is released automatically. Secure the vehicle against rolling. Harder vehicle braking In certain situations, it can be necessary to bring the vehicle to a halt more quickly than the Brake Assistant allows. To do this, quickly apply extra force to the brake. For a brief period, the braking pres- sure will be higher than the braking pres- sure that is achieved by the automatic brak- ing function. This interrupts automatic braking.

Servotronic

Servotronic is a speed-dependent power steering function. The system provides the steering force with more support at low speeds than at higher ones. This makes it easier to park, for in- stance, and makes steering firmer when driving at faster speeds. Furthermore, the steering force adapts ac- cording to the driving program, so that a firm, sporty feel or a comfortable steering response is conveyed.

CAUTION The use of poor-quality fuels may result in harmful engine deposits or damage. Addi- tionally, problems relating to drivability, starting and stalling, especially under cer- tain environmental conditions such as high ambient temperature and high alti- tude, may occur. If drivability problems are encountered, we recommend switching to a high quality gasoline brand and a higher octane grade — AKI number — for a few tank fills. To avoid harmful engine deposits, it is highly recommended to purchase gasoline from Top Tier retailers. Failure to comply with these recommenda- tions may result in the need for unsched- uled maintenance.

Recommended fuel grade MINI recommends AKI 91. John Cooper Works: MINI recommends AKI 93. Refuel with this gasoline to achieve the rated performance and consumption values.

Minimum fuel grade MINI recommends AKI 89. John Cooper Works: MINI recommends AKI 91. If you use gasoline with this minimum AKI Rating, the engine may produce knocking sounds when starting at high external tem- peratures. This has no effect on the engine life.
