Stowing cargo
When transporting cargo in your BMW:
>
Always load heavy and bulky objects 
as far forward and as low as possible, 
stowing them directly behind the 
backrests or the cargo area's parti-
tion
>
Cover sharp edges and corners
>
Do not pile objects higher than the 
top edge of the backrest
>
Pull out the partition net
*
 (refer to 
previous page), taking care to ensure 
that there is no danger that any of the 
objects stored in the cargo area will 
protrude through the net
*
>
For very heavy loads when the rear 
seat is not occupied, secure each 
safety belt in the opposite buckle.
