BMW 2006 650i Convertible Manual Do Proprietário

Do not leave children unattended in the 
vehicle; otherwise, they could endanger 

themselves and other persons, e.g. by opening 
the doors.

<

In principle, all seats in your BMW are suitable, 
with the exception of the driver's seat, for 
mounting universal child restraint systems for 
all age classes approved for the respective age 
group.

Accident research shows that the safest place 
for children is in the back.

Children younger than 13 years of age or 
under 5 ft/150 cm in height must be trans-

ported in back, seated in child restraint systems 
which correspond to the age, weight and height 
of the child. Otherwise there is an increased 
danger of injury in an accident.

<

Children 13 years of age or older must wear a 
safety belt as soon as a suitable child restraint 
system can no longer be used due to their age, 
size and weight.
All rear seat positions in your vehicle comply 
with the recommendations of the standard 
SAE J1819 for the safe securing of child 
restraint systems in motor vehicles.

Should it be necessary to use a child-
restraint system on the front passenger 

seat, the front, knee and side airbag on the pas-
senger side must be deactivated. Otherwise, 
there is an increased risk of injury for the child 
if the airbags are triggered, even with a child-
restraint system. Your BMW center will be glad 
to advise you.

<

For more information on automatic deactivation 
of the front passenger airbags, refer to page

Follow child-restraint system manufac-
turer's instructions for the selection, 

installation and use of child restraint systems. 
Otherwise the degree of protection they offer 
may be reduced.

<

Commercially available child restraint systems 
are designed to be secured with a lap belt or 
with the lap belt section of a three-point belt. 
Incorrectly or improperly installed child restraint 
systems can increase the risk of injury for chil-
dren. Always follow the instructions for install-
ing the system exactly.

Before installing a child restraint system 
in the front passenger seat, make sure 

that the front, knee and side airbag on the front 
passenger side are deactivated. Otherwise 
there is an increased risk of injury if the airbags 
are triggered.

<

Before mounting a universal child-restraint sys-
tem, move the front passenger seat into the 
highest position to achieve the best possible 
belt routing. Do not change this seat height.

All rear safety belts and the safety belt for the 
front passenger can be locked against pulling 
out to secure child restraint systems.
