HIGH-TECH BODYGUARDS: ACTIVE AND PASSIVE SAFETY.

The  Series is designed with BMW’s full range of standard state-of-the-art active and passive safety technologies. Active safety features, such as

Xenon Adaptive Headlights, powerful engines and large brakes, help you see and respond to potentially dangerous situations. Should the vehicle

detect an imminent accident situation, Active Protection pulls front safety belts tight and closes the windows – and, in the  Series Coupe, the

moonroof. Should an accident prove unavoidable, the system automatically applies the brakes. Other passive safety features, such as airbags –

and in the BMW  Series Convertible, Rollover Protection – are designed to help protect you and your passengers. After a severe impact, a host of

features spring into action: the doors automatically unlock, headlights and taillights flash, the starter cable is disconnected from the battery and the

fuel supply is cut off. Should any airbags deploy, BMW Assist eCall™ response specialists are automatically alerted and notified of your location.

Active and passive safety features36 37

Dynamic Stability Control (DSC). This system provides remarkable

tenacity on slippery road surfaces. If it senses over- or understeer, it

modulates engine power and can apply brakes individually to help keep

the vehicle under control and going in the intended direction. Start-off

Assistant, a feature of DSC, prevents the vehicle from rolling backward on

a hill for . seconds after taking your foot off the brake. The system also

includes Brake Fade Compensation, which lets you use the same amount

of pedal force, even when the brakes are heated; Brake Stand-by, which

pre-tenses the brakes for quicker action if you suddenly remove your foot

from the accelerator pedal; and Brake Drying, which periodically brings

the brake pads into contact with the rotors to eliminate accumulated

moisture when it rains.

Dynamic Traction Control (DTC). This sub-function of Dynamic

Stability Control raises the threshold for engine and braking intervention.

Activated by simply pushing a button, this traction mode allows increased

yet controlled wheelslip, helping to improve propulsion in deep snow or

sand. When activated, it also provides an even sportier driving style.

Run-flat tires. Thanks to reinforced sidewalls, run-flat tires maintain

their shape and rim position even after suffering a complete loss of tire

pressure. They allow you to continue driving at a reduced speed until

you reach a safe area to change a tire or wait for Roadside Assistance.

The Tire Pressure Monitor alerts you when there is a sudden and

irregular drop in tire pressure. Should the target pressure of a tire fall

below  percent, both a warning light and acoustic alarm are triggered.

Note: Please see the Owner’s Manual for more information on run-flat tires that details allotted miles

to travel and load weight rules.

Xenon Adaptive Headlights for low- and high-beams enhance

illumination of the road ahead at night or in poor visibility. Four LED

Corona headlight-rings, which can be used as Daytime Running Lights,

also serve as parking lights. Adaptive Headlights provide optimum

illumination of the road ahead when the car enters a turn. Light distribution

is automatically adapted to the road speed and steering angle. Cornering

Lights, positioned in the two inner headlights, are automatically activated

by using the turn indicator or changing the steering wheel angle, even

when the vehicle is at rest.

Active Head Restraints in the front seats reduce the risk of whiplash

or neck/head/spine injury. When sensors detect a rear-end collision, the

headrests rapidly and automatically pivot forward, supporting the driver’s

and front-seat occupant’s heads.

Body stiffness. The intelligent use of high-strength multi-phase steel

and aluminum provides a high degree of body stiffness and crash resis-

tance. Components, such as the A-pillars and windshield frame, include

special reinforcements to provide optimum occupant protection.

Airbags. In the event of a collision, BMW’s supplemental restraint system

(SRS) determines which airbag(s) to deploy for optimal protection. When

a safety belt is used, airbags deploy only at a higher crash severity; the

force of the deployment depends upon the severity of the impact. Four

airbags offer specific protection: front airbags with advanced technology

for driver and front passenger, and front-seat-mounted side-impact airbags.

Note: These pictures of airbags are for illustrative purposes only. Depending upon the type of

accident, none, some or all airbags may deploy.

Rollover Protection System, together with the reinforced A-pillars and

windshield frame, is designed to create an occupant “safety cell” in the

BMW  Series Convertible. Highly accurate sensors continually monitor

vehicle angle, longitudinal and lateral acceleration, and amount of ground

contact. When data indicate a rollover is imminent, rollover bars integrated

behind the rear-seat headrests are deployed. Within fractions of a second

they spring up and lock into place, helping to withstand rollover forces.
