curved than the driver's mirror.
Estimating distances correctly
Objects reflected in the mirror are closer
than they appear. Do not estimate the distance
to the traffic behind you based on what you
see in the mirror, as this will increase your risk
of an accident.◀

the remote control currently in use. The stored
position is called up automatically when the
vehicle is unlocked.

tive Light Control does not swivel to the driv‐
er's side when the vehicle is at a standstill.

High beams/roadside
parking lamps1High beams2Headlamp flasher3Roadside parking lamps
Left and right roadside parking lamps
There is an additional option of switching on
the lamps on the side of the car facing the road
when parked.
Switching on After parking the vehicle, press the lever up or
down beyond the pressure point for a longer
period, arrow 3.
The roadside parking lamps drain the battery.
Therefore, do not leave them on for unduly
long periods of time; otherwise, the battery
might not have enough power to start the en‐
gine.
Switching off
Press the lever in the opposite direction to the
pressure point, arrow 3.
High-beam Assistant The concept
When the lights are switched on, this system
automatically switches the high beams on and
off. The procedure is controlled by a sensor on
the front of the interior rearview mirror. The as‐
sistant ensures that the high beams are
switched on whenever the traffic situation al‐
lows. The driver can intervene at any time and
switch the high beams on and off as usual.
Activating the High-beam Assistant1.Turn the light switch to .2.With the low beams switched on, briefly
push the turn indicator lever in the direc‐
tion of the high beam.
The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up.
When the lights are switched on, the
high beams are switched on and off automati‐
cally.
The system responds to light from oncoming
traffic and traffic driving ahead of you, and to
adequate illumination, e.g., in towns and cities.

▷Do not place slip covers, seat cushions or
other objects on the front passenger seat
that are not approved specifically for seats
with integrated side airbags.▷Do not hang pieces of clothing, such as
jackets, over the backrests.▷Make sure that passengers do not lean
their heads against the side airbag; other‐
wise, serious injuries could result if the air‐
bag suddenly deployed.▷Do not remove the airbag restraint system.▷Do not remove the steering wheel.▷Do not apply adhesive materials to the air‐
bag cover panels, cover them or modify
them in any way.▷Never modify either the individual compo‐
nents or the wiring in the airbag system.
This also applies to the covers of the steer‐
ing wheel, the dashboard and the seats.◀
In the case of a malfunction, deactivation
and after triggering of the airbags
Do not touch the individual components imme‐
diately after the system has been triggered;
otherwise, there is the danger of burns.
Only have the airbags checked, repaired or dis‐
mantled and the airbag generator scrapped by
your service center or a workshop that has the
necessary authorization for handling explo‐
sives.
Non-professional attempts to service the sys‐
tem could lead to failure in an emergency or
undesired triggering of the airbag, either of
which could result in injury.◀
Warning notices and information about the air‐
bags can also be found on the sun visors.
Automatic deactivation of the
passenger airbags
The system determines whether the front pas‐
senger seat is occupied by measuring the re‐
sistance of the human body. The front and side
airbags on the front passenger side are acti‐
vated or deactivated accordingly by the sys‐
tem.
The indicator lamp above the interior rearview
mirror shows the current status of the passen‐
ger airbags, deactivated or activated, refer to
Status of passenger airbags below.
Passenger feet in the footwellMake sure that the front passenger
keeps his or her feet in the footwell; otherwise,
the front passenger airbags may not function
properly.◀
Child restraint fixing system in the front
passenger seat
Before transporting a child on the passenger
seat, read the safety and operating instructions
under Transporting children safely, refer to
page 53.◀
Malfunction of the automatic
deactivation system
The front passenger airbags may be deacti‐
vated if adolescents and adults sit in certain
positions; the indicator lamp for the front pas‐
senger airbags comes on. In this case, change
the sitting position so that the front passenger
airbags are activated and the indicator lamp
goes out. If the desired airbag status cannot be
achieved by changing the sitting position, do
not transport the passenger in the vehicle.
To make sure that occupation of the seat
cushion can be detected correctly:▷Do not attach seat covers, seat cushion
padding, ball mats or other items to the
passenger seat unless they are specifically
recommended by BMW.▷Do not place any objects on the front pas‐
senger seat.▷Do not place objects under the seat that
could press against the seat from below.Seite 91SafetyControls91

of the navigation.▷Interior rearview mirror with digital com‐
pass: recalibrate, refer to page 116.
Disposing of old batteries
Have old batteries disposed of by your
service center or bring them to a recy‐
cling center.
Maintain the battery in an upright position for
transport and storage. Secure the battery so
that it does not tip over during transport.
Fuses Notes Replacing fuses
Never attempt to repair a blown fuse and
do not replace a defective fuse with a substi‐
tute of another color or amperage rating; this could lead to a circuit overload, ultimately re‐
sulting in a fire in the vehicle.◀
A pair of plastic tweezers is found on the cur‐
rent distributor.
See the inside of the cover for information on
fuse assignment.
Below the glove compartment1.Remove the screws 1 using the screw‐
driver from the onboard vehicle tool kit.2.Remove cover 2, unwinding the cable to
the footwell lamp if necessary.3.Release the shiny fastener 3.4.Fold the current distributor 4 downward
and pull forward.
The cover is reinstalled in reverse order.
