Don't know about Spain, but in the US, you can register on the BMW site, and have access to the manual.

The manuals are not online in "My BMW" for the US.

I can imagine how you feel right now. I was the same until I picked up yesterday.
I am not sure in Spain but the manual consists of three parts in Austria.
1) 1 series manual
2) supplementary manual for 1M
3) service booklet

1 series manual is in the bmwusa.com. The direct link to it is as follows.

The supplementary manual for 1M is 46 pages. I haven not found any link to that manual. So I have scanned mine and made a PDF file for my reference. It is 4.19 MB.

If you have an email address which can receive the file, I will send it to you if you want.

Are we talking about the owner's manual that comes with the car? They're online for me - I've downloaded them from my BMW page more than once. There are 2 posted there - 1 for cars with the i-Drive, and 1 for cars without.

Does this mean to slam on the brakes from time-to-time?
