their heads on or near the side airbag.
Therefore, we recommend that the rear
side airbags, if provided, be deacti-
vated if you plan to transport children in
the rear seat. The rear seat side airbags
may already have been deactivated by
a BMW Sports Activity Vehicle center.
Labels in the rear door opening should
indicate the status of your rear seat side
airbags. If you are uncertain of their sta-
tus, or wish to have the airbags acti-
vated or deactivated, please contact
your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle cen-
ter.

Even if you adhere to all the instruc-
tions, injuries resulting from contact
with airbags cannot be fully excluded,
depending on the circumstances. The
ignition and inflation noise may provoke
a mild hearing loss in extremely sensi-
tive individuals. This effect is usually
only temporary.
Airbag warning information is also pro-
vided on both sun visors.
This is the right way a child should sit in
a child-restraint device when rear side
airbags, refer to arrow, are provided.
