Installing child-restraint 
systems
Before installing any child-restraint system or 
child seat, read the following:
Observe the child-restraint system man-
ufacturer's instructions for installation 
and use. Otherwise the degree of protection 
may be reduced. After an accident, have all 
parts of the child-restraint system and of the 
relevant vehicle safety belt system checked and 
replaced if necessary. Have this work done only 
at your BMW center or at a workshop that works 
according to BMW repair procedures with cor-
respondingly trained personnel.

Commercially-available child-restraint systems 
are designed to be secured with a lap belt or 
with the lap belt portion of a combination lap/
shoulder belt. Improperly or inadequately 
installed restraint systems can increase the risk 
of injury to children. Always read and follow the 
instructions that come with the system.
Child seat security
All of the rear belt retractors and the front pas-
senger safety belt can be locked for mounting 
and securing child-restraint systems.
Information regarding this is located near the 
buckle latch of each safety belt.
To lock the safety belt
Pull the entire length of the belt from the belt 
retractor. Allow the reel to retract the belt 
somewhat and engage the buckle, then tighten 
the belt against the child-restraint system. The 
retraction mechanism is now locked.
To unlock the safety belt
Release the buckle, remove the child-restraint 
system and allow the belt retractor to reel the 
belt completely in.
Child-restraint system with tether 
strap
If you use a child-restraint system with a tether 
strap, three additional tether anchorage points 
have been provided, refer to the arrows in the 
illustration. Depending on the location selected 
for seating in the rear passenger area, attach 
the tether strap to the corresponding anchor-
age point to secure the child-restraint system, 
as shown in the illustration below.
Placement of the tether strap
Outer sitting positions: 
Lift the head restraint and pass the tether strap 
between the head restraint and the seat back. It 
is recommended to readjust the head restraint 
into the lowest possible position.
Center sitting position: 
Push the center head restraint upward. Guide 
the tether strap between the head restraint and 
the rear seat back. The tether strap must be 
between the anchorages of the head restraint.
