Technology for driving comfort and safety

Protective action

Observe the adjustment instructions on

page 40 to ensure the best possible per-

sonal protection.<

The front airbags help protect the driver and

front passenger by responding to frontal

impacts in which safety belts alone cannot pro-

vide adequate restraint. When needed, the

head and side airbags help provide protection in

the event of side impact. The relevant side air-

bag supports the side upper body area. The

head air bag supports the head.

The airbags will purposely not be activated by

every collision, e.g. not by more minor acci-

dents, certain roll-over situations and rear-end

collisions.

Do not apply adhesive materials to the

cover panels of the airbags, cover them or

modify them in any other way. Do not attach

seat covers, cushions or other objects not spe-

cifically approved for seats with integral side air-

bags to the front seats. Do not hang items of

clothing such as coats or jackets over the back-

rests. Do not attempt to remove the airbag

retention system from the vehicle. Do not mod-

ify the individual components of the system or

its wiring in any way. This includes the uphol-

stered covers on the steering wheel, instrument

panel, seats and roof posts, as well as the sides

of the roof lining. Do not attempt to remove or

dismantle the steering wheel.

Do not touch the individual components imme-

diately after the system has been triggered,

because there is a danger of burns.

In the event of malfunctions, deactivation, or

triggering of the airbag restraint system, have

the testing, repair, removal, and disposal of air-

bag generators executed only by a BMW center

or a workshop that works according to BMW

repair procedures with correspondingly trained

personnel and has the required explosives

licenses. Unprofessional attempts to service

the system could lead to failure in an emer-

gency or undesired airbag activation, either of

which could result in personal injury.<

Warning notices and information about the air-

bags can also be found on the sun visors.

Automatic deactivation of the front

passenger airbags

An analysis of the impression in the front pas-

senger seat cushion determines whether and

how the seat is occupied. The front and side air-

bags for the front passenger are activated or

deactivated by the system accordingly.

The indicator lamp above the interior

rearview mirror shows the current status

of the front passenger airbags, deactivated or

activated, refer to Status of front passenger air-

bags below.

Before transporting a child on the front

passenger seat, read the safety precau-

tions and handling instructions under Trans-

porting children safely, refer to page 50.

The front and side airbags can also be deacti-

vated by adolescents and adults sitting in cer-

tain positions; the indicator lamp for the front

passenger airbags comes on. In such cases, the

passenger should change his or her sitting

position so that the front passenger airbags are

activated and the indicator lamp goes out. If the

desired airbag status cannot be achieved by

changing the sitting position, transport the rele-

vant passenger on a rear seat. Do not attach

seat covers, seat cushion padding, ball mats or

other items to the front passenger seat unless

they are specifically recommended by BMW.

Do not place any items under the seat which

could press against the seat from below. Other-

wise a correct analysis of the seat cushion is not

ensured.<
