LATCH child-restraint fixing*
LATCH: Lower Anchor and Tethers for
CHildren.
The rear outer sitting positions are pro-
vided with anchors for a LATCH child-
restraint fixing.
To fit the LATCH child-restraint fixing,
follow the operating and safety
instructions of the manufacturer. <
If the vehicle is equipped with power seats
in the rear, return these to their standard
adjustment setting before using a LATCH
child-restraint fixing, refer to page
49 .
Access to anchorage points
The illustration shows the left rear seat as
an example.
The anchorage points for the LATCH child-
restraint fixing are located underneath the
identifying symbols.
Installation guide
The installation guide makes it easier to fit
the LATCH child-restraint fixing and at the
same time protects the surface of the
seats.
The installation guide is available at
your BMW center. Always observe all
instructions for operation and use provided
by the manufacturer in the installation
guide.
<
1. Engage the center safety belt into the
belt buckle
2. Pull the belt away from the area of the
child-restraint fixing
3. Firmly press the installation guide into
the gap between the upholstery on seat
and backrest, continuing until the two
funnel-shaped guides snap into place in
the LATCH support braces in the seat.
Pull the installation guides to remove.
On journeys
Make sure that children do not lean
out of the child's seat towards the
door panels. Otherwise severe injuries can
be caused if the side airbags are trig-
gered.
