Entering the rear Lumbar support
*
The seat-integrated safety belt allows
easy access to the rear. You do not
need to adjust the safety belts. They
automatically adapt to various body
sizes.
1 Lift the lever (1) up and tilt the back-
rest forward.
2 Press the switch (2) toward the front
of the car and hold it there until the
seat moves to the desired position.
You can lock a backrest that has
been tilted forward. This makes
sense when, for instance, someone is
climbing into the rear on an incline. To
do this, press against the backrest until
you hear it click into place. To move it
back into place, you do not need to
unlock it by moving the lever (1).<46cus029
If you tilt the backrest back and hold the
switch (2) pressed toward the back of
the vehicle, the seat will return to its
former position.
If you let go of the switch (2)
before the seat has returned to its
former position, it will remain in the
position where you leave it. To move it
back into place, you do not need to
unlock it by moving the lever (1).<
Lock both backrests while driving,
as otherwise there is danger of an
unexpected movement causing an
accident. The indicator lamp in the
instrument cluster flashes if the back-
rest is not locked, refer to page 21.
Then the indicator lamp comes on until
the safety belt is fastened.<
You can adjust the backrest's contour
for additional support in the curvature
of your spine's lumbar region.
The upper hips and spinal column
receive supplementary support to help
you maintain a relaxed, upright posture.
>Press front/rear of switch:
Increase/decrease curvature.
>Press the upper/lower end of the
switch:
Increase the upper/lower curvature.46cde011

Seat and mirror memory*You can store and recall three different
driver's seat and exterior mirror posi-
tions. The illustration shows the buttons
on the driver's seat for making these
adjustments.
The headrest setting is stored in
the memory, but the lumbar
support is not.
2 Set the desired seat, headrest and
exterior mirror positions.
3 Press the
M
EMORY button: the indi-
cator lamp in the button lights up.
4 Press memory button 1, 2 or 3, as
desired: the indicator lamp goes out.

To select a stored settingConvenience function:
1 Open the driver's door after
unlocking or turn the ignition key in
position 1.
2 Briefly press memory button 1, 2 or 3,
as desired.
The adjustment cycle is canceled
immediately if you press a seat
adjustment switch or one of the
memory buttons.
Security function:
1 With the driver's door closed and the
ignition key either removed or in posi-
tion 0 or 2.
2 Maintain pressure on the desired
memory button (1, 2 or 3) until the
adjustment process is completed.
If you accidentally press the
M
EMORY
button: press the button again; the
indicator lamp goes out.
Do not select a memory position
while the vehicle is moving. If you
do so, there is a risk of accident from
unexpected seat movement.<
Your BMW center can adjust your
vehicle's systems in such a
manner that your personalized settings
are automatically set for the seat, head-
rest and exterior mirror positions when
you unlock the vehicle with your
personal remote control.<
If you make use of this method of
adjustment, be sure that the foot-
well behind the driver's seat is unob-
structed before unlocking the vehicle.
If you fail to do so, persons or objects
could be injured or damaged if the seat
should move backward.<
