BMW 850CSi
Electronic engine output control (EML)
has two programs for operation of the
accelerator pedal: "Comfort" and
"Sport".
Switch positions
K – Comfort setting, for driving at a
moderate engine power or on a wet or
slippery road
S – Sport setting
The switch is illuminated in ignition
key position 2. Only the S setting is
shown on the instrument panel.
If the EML warning light on the instru-
ment panel indicates a malfunction,
take the car to BMW Service.
The normal rest position for the gear
lever (marked by a dot) is in the 3rd/
4th gear plane of the gate.
When the lever is moved from a for-
ward or reverse gear into neutral, it is
automatically spring-loaded to return
to this plane of the gate.
aWhen selecting 5th or 6th gear,
the lever must be pressed firmly to the
right, to ensure that 3rd or 4th gear is
not selected accidentally.c
Reverse
Engage this gear only when the car is
standing still. Press the gear lever to
the left until slight resistance is over-
come.
Reversing lights
These come on when reverse is
selected and the ignition key is in
position 2.
aNever try to prevent the car from
rolling back on an uphill gradient by
slipping the clutch; always apply the
handbrake. A clutch that is allowed to
slip will wear rapidly.c
