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.<
In order to avoid reducing their protective
action, follow all instructions of the child
restraint system manufacturer for the selection,
installation, and use of child restraint sys-
tems.<
Children always in the rear
Accident research shows that the safest place
for children is on the back seat.
Backrest width* on front passenger's
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 passengers seat, the back-
rest width adjustment must be open com-
pletely. After installing the child's seat, no
memory position may be called up; otherwise,
the stability of the child's seat on the front pas-
senger seat is reduced.<
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,
weight and size.
1.
Open backrest width completely, refer to
Front comfort seat adjustment on page 44.
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.
2.
Mount child's seat.
Child seat security
Exception for front passenger seat
Should it be necessary to use a child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat, the front, knee and side airbag on the front
passenger side must be deactivated. Other-
wise, there is an increased risk of injury for the
child if the airbags are triggered, even with a
child restraint system. Your BMW center will be
glad to advise you.<
All rear safety belts and the safety belt for the
front passenger can be locked against pulling
out to secure child restraint systems.
More information on Automatic deactivation of
front passenger airbags, refer to page 95.
Locking safety belt
1.
Secure the child restraint system with the
belt.
2.
3.
Pull out the belt webbing completely.
Allow the belt webbing to be pulled in and
pull taut against the child restraint system.
The safety belt is locked.
