Airbags Carrying children in safety
Indicator light
The indicator light in the instru-
ment panel confirms that the
airbag system is ready to
operate (from ignition key position 1
onwards).
System operational:
>
The indicator light comes on briefly
and then goes out.
System defective:
>
The indicator light does not come on,
or
>
The indicator light comes on briefly,
goes out briefly and then comes on
again.
In the event of a fault, have the system
checked without delay by BMW
Service, otherwise there is a risk that
the airbags will not be triggered off
even if a sufficiently severe accident
occurs within the airbag range.
For children up to 12 years of age and
less than 150 cm (approx. 5 ft) tall, suit-
able approved restraint systems may
have to be installed; comply with local
regulations.
Small children up to about 18 months
old can be secured with a rear-facing
restraint system on the back seats,
using standard seat belts.
BMW Service can supply suitable child
restraint systems for every age group.
Please comply with the notes in the
installation instructions when using
these products.
All the seats of your BMW, except
for the driver's seat, are suitable
for the installation of universal child
restraint systems for all age groups,
provided these have been approved for
the age group in question.
<
Do not allow children to travel on
the front passenger's seat,
including when sitting on the lap of
another person or wearing a child
restraint system, as there is the risk of
injury if the airbags are triggered off.
BMW Service can provide information
on the temporary disabling of the
airbags on the front passenger's side
and on changing the belt system on the
front passenger's side.
Under no circumstances are child
restraint systems to be modified, as
their protective effect may otherwise
be impaired.
If the car has rear side airbags, make
sure that any child's seat is installed
correctly and not too near the airbags in
the door trim panels. Do not allow the
child to lean out of the child's seat
towards the door trim, as serious inju-
ries could occur if the airbag were to be
triggered off.
Observe the notes on installation and
use provided by the manufacturer of
the child restraint system, to uphold its
protective effect. If damaged or
subjected to strain in an accident, have
the child restraint system and possibly
the belt system used to secure it,
together with other accessory items,
renewed by BMW Service and the belt
anchorages checked.
