Transporting children safely
The right place for children
Installing child restraint
systems
Do not leave children unattended in the
vehicle, otherwise they could endanger
themselves and other persons, e.g. by opening
the doors.<
Observe the child restraint system manu-
facturer's instructions for selection,
installation and use of the child restraint sys-
tems. Otherwise the degree of protection may
be reduced.<
Children always in the rear
Accident research shows that the safest place
for children is on the back seat.
Backrest width* on front passenger
seat
Children younger than 13 years of age or
with a height under 5 ft/150 cm may only
be transported in the rear in child restraint sys-
tems which correspond to the age, weight and
height of the child. Otherwise there is an
increased danger of injury in an accident.<
Before mounting a child restraint system
on the front passenger seat, the backrest
width adjustment must be open completely.
After mounting the child's seat, no memory
position may be called up and the active back-
rest width adjustment must be deactivated,
otherwise the stability of the child's seat on the
front passenger seat is limited.<
Children 13 years of age or older must wear a
safety belt as soon as a suitable child restraint
system can no longer be used due to their age,
size and weight.
1.
After unlocking the vehicle, place on the
front passenger seat and close the door to
call up the memory position.
With the exception of the driver's seat, all seats
in your BMW comply with the recommenda-
tions of the standard SAE J1819 for the safe
securing of child restraint systems in motor
vehicles.

4.
Completely open the backrest width adjust-
ment, refer to page 46.
Deactivate active backrest width adjust-
ment, refer to page 47.
Exception for front passenger seat
Install child's seat.
Should it be necessary to use a child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat, the front and side airbag on the passenger
side must be deactivated. Otherwise, there is
an increased risk of injury for the child if the air-
bags are triggered, even with a child restraint
system. Your BMW center will be glad to advise
you.<
Child seat security
For more information on automatic deactivation
of the front passenger airbags, refer to page 95.
All rear safety belts and the safety belt for the
front passenger can be locked against pulling
out to secure child restraint systems.
