.

If the safety belt system has been
subjected to the stresses involved

in an accident or otherwise damaged:
have the entire safety belt mechanism
replaced by your BMW center,
including the safety belt tensioner. In
addition, have your BMW center
inspect the safety belt anchors. If a
child restraint system was in the vehicle
during an accident, consult the manu-
facturer's instructions regarding
replacement.

Vehicles with through-loading
system: please comply with the

instructions for the center safety belt on

Child restraint systems

*

Never install a rear-facing child
restraint device on the front

passenger seat. If you do so, the child
could be injured when the airbag is trig-
gered.
Children should always ride in the rear
and the restraint systems should be
secured with the outer belts.
The centre seat belt should only be
used when it is necessary to secure
three child restraint systems.
Do not modify the child restraint system
in any way. If you do so, it will not
provide your child with maximum
protection.

Protective effect

The front airbags supplement the three-
point safety belts by providing additional
protection for the front-seat occupants
in the event of a severe frontal collision
when the protection afforded by the
belts alone may no longer be sufficient.
The Side impact Head Protection
System and side airbags help provide
protection in the event of a side impact.
Each of the side airbags is designed to
help support the upper body.
