Transporting children safely
Commercially available child-restraint 
systems are designed to be secured 
with a lap belt or with the lap belt por-
tion 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.
Correct location for installing
In your BMW, all seats equipped with a 
three-point safety belt – except for the 
driver's seat – are suitable for installing 
universal child-restraint systems of all 
age classes and which have been 
approved for the age group in question. 
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.
Depending on the location selected for 
seating in the rear passenger area, 
attach the tether strap to the corre-
sponding anchorage point to secure the 
child-restraint system, as shown in the 
illustration.
If the respective seating position is fit-
ted with a headrest lift the headrest and 
pass the tether strap between the 
headrest and the seat back.
It is recommended to readjust the head 
restraint in the lowest possible position.
Adjust the tether strap according to the 
child-restraint manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
