Fasten safety belts reminder for driver
and passenger*
The indicator lamp comes on and an
acoustic signal sounds. In addition, a
message appears on the Control Dis-
play. Check whether the safety belt
has been fastened correctly.
The 'Fasten safety belts' reminder is issued as
long as the driver's safety belt has not been fas-
tened. In some country-specific versions, the
'Fasten safety belts' reminder is also activated
at road speeds above approx. 5 mph or 8 km/h if
the passenger's safety belt is not fastened, if
objects are placed on the passenger seat, or if
driver or passenger unfasten their safety belts.
Damage to safety belts
If the safety belts are damaged or
stressed in an accident: have the belt sys-
tem, including any belt tensioners or child-
restraint systems, replaced and the belt
anchors checked. Have this work done only by
your BMW center or at a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel. Otherwise, it is
not guaranteed that the safety devices will func-
tion properly.

Mirrors
Exterior mirrors
The passenger's mirror is more convex
than the driver's mirror. The objects seen
in the mirror are closer than they appear. Do not
gauge your distance from traffic behind you on
the basis of what you see in the mirror; other-
wise there is an increased risk of an accident.

The setting for the exterior mirrors is stored for

. The stored
position is called up automatically when the
vehicle is unlocked.
Manual adjustment
The mirrors can also be adjusted manually:
press the edge of the glass.
Folding mirrors in and out*
At driving speeds up to approx. 20 km/h, you
can fold the mirrors in and out by pressing
button
2. This can be beneficial in narrow
streets, for example, or for moving mirrors that
were folded in by hand back out into their cor-
rect positions. Mirrors that were folded in are
folded out automatically at a speed of approx.
25 mph/40 km/h.
Before entering an automatic car wash,
fold in the exterior mirrors by hand or with
button
2 to prevent them from being damaged
due to the width of the vehicle.
