Transporting children safely
Leave the rear safety belts in the 
holders if they are not needed to 
avoid unwanted movement from the 
safety belts at high speeds.
<
Commercially available child seats 
complying with the legal standard are 
designed to be secured with a seat belt 
or with the seat belt portion of a combi-
nation lap/shoulder belt. Improperly or 
inadequately installed restraint sys-
tems 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, two 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.
1. Open the convertible top compart-
ment lid, refer to page 
2. Lift the headrest and pass the tether 
strap between the headrest and the 
seat back. It is recommended that 
you return the head restraint back to 
its lowest possible position
3. Adjust the tether strap according to 
the child-restraint manufacturer's 
instructions
4. Close the convertible top compart-
ment panel.
