Convertible: rollover 
protection system
The rollover protection system is automatically 
activated in the event of an accident or a critical 
driving situation, extreme inclination on the lon-
gitudinal axis, or loss of ground contact. The 
rollover bars located behind the rear head 
restraints are deployed within fractions of a sec-
ond.
As a supplement to the rollover bar integrated 
into the windshield frame, the rollover protec-
tion system ensures that all vehicle occupants 
have the necessary headroom.
Always keep the path of movement of the 
rollover protection system clear.
In less severe accidents, you are protected by 
the fastened safety belt and, depending on the 
severity of the accident, the belt tensioner and 
the multistage airbag restraint system.

Lowering
If the rollover protection system experienced no 
impact after automatic activation, then it can be 
lowered again. No tools are necessary for this 
purpose.
1.
Press the release backward and hold in that 
position.
2.
Press the rollover protection unit halfway 
down from above.
3.
Let go of the release.
4.
Press the rollover protection unit down until 
it snaps into place.
5.
Use the same procedure for the second roll-
over protection unit.
Have the rollover protection system checked 
after unexpected triggering.
Never move the convertible top when the 
rollover protection system is raised.
No changes of any nature may be made to the 
individual components of the rollover protec-
tion system and wiring.
Work on the rollover protection system may 
only be performed at a BMW center.
Unprofessional attempts to service the system 
can lead to failure or malfunction.
For a system check and to ensure long-term 
functioning, you must comply with the mainte-
nance intervals of the service requirements, 
refer to page

Head-Up Display*
The concept
With the Head-Up Display, important informa-
tion is projected into the driver's field of view, 
e.g. navigation instructions. This enables you to 
absorb this information without looking away 
from the road.
