(What's worse is that this affects a couple of the build configuration pages too, where you might not see all options if they're at the bottom. BMW needs to fire whoever made this and hire competent web designers, cause this elementary mistake may lose them money.)

In my case, with 161 DPI, it cuts off after "To do so, all you", and no amount of resizing will get it back because the frame scales with the text.
So if it doesn't work, use IE (with automatic compatibility mode for broken sites, which is the default) or some other browser to access it. Or temporarily lower your system DPI setting to a wrong value.
But as of present, the latest update, 1006, is from mid November, so unless you got your X1 before then, you might not want to bother.
