Stowing cargo
When transporting cargo in your BMW:
>
Load heavy cargo as far forward as
possible – directly behind the back-
rests or the luggage compartment
partition – and as low as possible
>
Cover sharp edges and corners
>
Do not pile objects higher than the
top edge of the backrest
>
If you are transporting very heavy
loads when the rear seat is not occu-
pied, secure the outer safety belts in
the opposite buckles.
