41 00... Quality Standard: Notes

• The overall requirements relating to a vehicle can only be implemented by including "all" components. This applies in particular to the body. With regard to an optimum crash result, it is necessary to maintain the structural measures.

It is absolutely essential to observe the procedures set out in the repair instructions.

The use of non-approved repair steps or tools may have serious consequences for the structure of the vehicle (e.g. in the event of a crash). In the end, this can result in safety and product liability risks which cannot be calculated.

Corrosion protection measures during and after repairs are absolutely essential to maintain the value of the vehicle.

• Use only genuine BMW parts and approved auxiliary devices, materials and operating fluids when carrying out repairs.
