Front head restraints

A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the
risk of spinal injury in the event of an accident.

Adjust the head restraint so that its center
is approximately at ear level. Otherwise

there is increased danger of injury in the event
of an accident.Only remove the head restraints
if no one will be sitting on the seat in question.
Reinstall the head restraints before transport-
ing passengers, as otherwise the head restraint
cannot provide its protective function.

Active front head restraints

In the event of a rear-end collision of sufficient
severity, the active head restraint reduces the
distance to the head.

Do not use seat covers or head restraint
covers that could impede the proper

functioning of the active head restraint. Other-
wise, there is no assurance that the active head
restraint will perform its protective function and
it is not possible to take advantage of its injury-
reducing potential in the event of a rear-end
collision.
Have the active head restraints reset after they
are triggered in a rear-end collision. Only have
this work carried out by a BMW center or a
workshop that works according to BMW repair
procedures with correspondingly trained per-
sonnel. Otherwise, this safety equipment will
not function properly.

Please contact a BMW center if you wish
to have the front head restraints removed

and installed.
