Damage to safety belts

When subjected to strain due to an acci-
dent or in the event of damage, replace

the safety belts, the belt tensioners, and any
child restraint systems and have the belt anchor
points checked. Only have this work carried out
at a BMW center or at a workshop that works
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel. Otherwise cor-
rect operation of this safety equipment is not
guaranteed.

Heated seats

Press once for each temperature level. The
maximum temperature is supplied when three
LEDs are lit.
The temperature is reduced and if need be, the
heating is switched off in order to reduce the
load on the battery. The LEDs remain lit.
To switch off:
Press the button longer.

Mirrors

Exterior mirrors

The mirror on the passenger's side is
more curved than the driver's mirror.

Objects reflected in the mirror are closer than
they appear. Do not estimate the distance of
following traffic based on what you see in the
mirrors, otherwise there is an increased acci-
dent risk.

3 Folding mirrors in and out

Storing the mirror positions, refer to Seat, mir-
ror and steering wheel memory on page

Adjusting manually

You can also adjust the mirrors manually by
pressing against the outer edges of their mirror
glass.

Folding exterior mirrors in and out

Pressing button

3 allows you to fold mirrors

in and out up to a speed of approx. 20 mph/
30 km/h. This is advantageous, for example, in
car washes, narrow streets or for bringing mir-
rors that have been manually folded in back into
the correct position. Mirrors that were folded in
are folded out automatically at a speed of
approx. 25 mph/40 km/h.

Before going through a car wash, fold the
mirrors in manually, or with button

3, oth-

erwise they could be damaged, depending on
the width of the car wash system.

Automatic heating

Below a certain outdoor temperature, both
exterior mirrors are heated whenever the
engine is running or the ignition is switched on.
