Transporting children safely

The right place for children

Do not leave children unattended in the

vehicle; otherwise, they could endanger

themselves and other persons, e.g. by opening

the doors.<

In principle, all seats in your BMW are suitable,

with the exception of the driver's seat, for

mounting universal child restraint systems for

all age classes approved for the respective age

group.

Children always in back

Accident research shows that the safest place

for children is in the back.

Children younger than 13 years of age or

under 5 ft/150 cm in height must be trans-

ported in back, seated in child restraint systems

which correspond to the age, weight and height

of the child. Otherwise there is an increased

danger of injury in an accident.<

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.

All rear seat positions in your vehicle comply

with the recommendations of the standard

SAE J1819 for the safe securing of child

restraint systems in motor vehicles.

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 pas-

senger side must be deactivated. Otherwise,

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.<

For more information on automatic deactivation

of the front passenger airbags, refer to page 91.

Installing child-restraint

systems

Follow child-restraint system manufac-

turer's instructions for the selection,

installation and use of child restraint systems.

Otherwise the degree of protection they offer

may be reduced.<

Commercially available child restraint systems

are designed to be secured with a lap belt or

with the lap belt section of a three-point belt.

Incorrectly or improperly installed child restraint

systems can increase the risk of injury for chil-

dren. Always follow the instructions for install-

ing the system exactly.

On front passenger seat

Before installing a child restraint system

in the front passenger seat, make sure

that the front, knee and side airbag on the front

passenger side are deactivated. Otherwise

there is an increased risk of injury if the airbags

are triggered.<

Seat height

Before mounting a universal child-restraint sys-

tem, move the front passenger seat into the

highest position to achieve the best possible

belt routing. Do not change this seat height.

Child seat security

All rear safety belts and the safety belt for the

front passenger can be locked against pulling

out to secure child restraint systems.
