Ejection Mitigation
The head airbag system is designed as an ejec‐
tion mitigation countermeasure to reduce the
likelihood of ejections of vehicle occupants
through side windows during rollovers or side im‐
pact events.
Knee airbag
The knee airbag supports the legs in a frontal im‐
pact.
Protective action
Airbags are not triggered in every impact situa‐
tion, for instance in less severe accidents or rear-
end collisions.
Information on optimum effect of the
airbags
WARNING
If the seat position is incorrect or the deploy‐
ment area of the airbags is impaired, the airbag
system cannot provide protection as intended
and may cause additional injuries due to trig‐
gering. There is a risk of injuries or danger to
life. Follow the information on achieving the op‐
timum protective effect of the airbag system.
Keep a distance from the airbags.
Always grasp the steering wheel on the
steering wheel rim. Hold your hands at the
3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions, to keep the
risk of injury to your hands or arms as low as
possible when the airbag is triggered.
Make sure that occupants keep their heads
away from the side airbag.
Make sure that the front passenger is sitting
correctly, i.e., keeps his or her feet and legs in
the floor area and does not support them on
the dashboard.
There should be no additional persons, ani‐
mals or objects between an airbag and a per‐
son.
Dashboard and windshield on the front pas‐
senger side must stay clear - do not attach
adhesive labels or coverings and do not at‐
tach brackets or cables, for instance for GPS
devices or mobile phones.
Do not apply adhesive materials to the airbag
cover panels, do not cover them or modify
them in any way.
Do not use the cover of the front airbag on
the front passenger side as a storage area.
Do not place slip covers, seat cushions or
other objects on the front passenger seat
that are not specifically suited for seats with
integrated side airbags.
Do not hang pieces of clothing, such as jack‐
ets, over the backrests.
Never modify either the individual compo‐
nents or the wiring in the airbag system. This
also applies to steering wheel covers, the
dashboard, and the seats.
Do not remove the airbag system.
Even when you follow all instructions very
closely, injury from contact with the airbags can‐
not be fully ruled out in certain situations.
The ignition and inflation noise may lead to
short-term and, in most cases, temporary hear‐
ing impairment in sensitive occupants.
Vehicle modifications for a person with disabili‐
ties may affect the air bag system; contact BMW
Customer Relations for further information.
Warnings and information on the airbags are also
found on the sun visors.
Functional readiness of the
airbag system

ing of the airbag system. There is a risk of in‐
