Protective effectThe front airbags supplement the three-
point safety belts by providing addi-
tional protection for the front-seat
occupants in the event of a severe
frontal collision in which the protection
afforded by the belts alone may no
longer be sufficient. The head protec-
tion and side airbags help provide pro-
tection in the event of a collision from
the side. Each of the side airbags is de-
signed to support the upper body.380de647
The side airbags in the rear pas-
senger area
* of your vehicle may
already have been deactivated either at
the time of manufacture or by a BMW
center. You may have them activated if
you desire to do so. Please contact
your authorized BMW center for addi-
tional information.<
