Do not use seat or head-restraint covers
which could impair the operability of the
active head restraint. Otherwise, the protective
function of the active head restraint is not
ensured and its potential to reduce injuries in a
rear-end collision cannot be fully utilized.
Have the active head restraints reset after being
triggered in a rear-end collision. Have work on
your vehicle done only by a BMW Sports Activ-
ity Vehicle Center or a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel. Otherwise, this
restraint device will not function.

Please contact a BMW Sports Activity
Vehicle Center if the front head restraints
