compartment lid, refer to page35. This corre-
sponds to pressing the button.

tion, as long as a remote control is in the pas-
senger compartment. The remote does not

2.Shift transmission into position N.
3.Switch engine off.

Malfunction
Local radio waves can disrupt the function of
Comfort Access. Should the remote control fail
to operate due to interference of this kind, you
can respond by using the buttons on the remote
control or by using a key to unlock or lock your
vehicle at one of the doors. To start the engine
after this, insert the remote control into the igni-
tion lock.

control, refer to page30.
2.Press in the detent catch, refer to arrow1,
e.g. with the key.
3.Remove the cover of the battery compart-
ment, refer to arrow2.

Press the safety switch when children
ride in the rear; otherwise, unsupervised
closing of the windows could lead to injuries.<
In order to deactivate the function again,
you must insert the remote control into
the ignition lock or, with Comfort Access, you
must switch into radio ready state.<
Glass sunroof, electric*
To prevent bodily injuries, watch the
glass sunroof as it closes.
Always take along the remote control when you
leave the vehicle; otherwise, children could, for
example, operate the roof and injure them-
selves.<
Raising
Press the switch.
The closed glass sunroof is raised and the slid-
ing visor opens slightly.
Do not use force to close the sliding visor
when the sunroof is in its raised position,
as this could damage the mechanism.<
Opening, closing
>Slide switch back to the resistance point.
The glass sunroof and the sliding visor con-
tinue to open together for as long as you
maintain pressure on the switch.
>Press the switch back briefly past the resis-
tance point.
The glass sunroof and the sliding visor open
automatically. Pressing the switch again
briefly stops the operation.Close the glass sunroof in the same way by slid-
ing the switch toward the front. The sliding visor
remains open and can be closed by hand.
For convenience operation using the remote
key or the door lock, refer to page32 or34.
Automatic opening and closing
Press the switch briefly beyond the resistance
point.
The following movements are also automated:
>Press the switch when the roof is open: the
sunroof is completely raised.
>With the sunroof raised, press the switch
briefly in the opening direction: the sunroof
is opened completely.
Pressing the switch again briefly stops the
operation.
Pinch protection system
If the glass sunroof meets with resistance dur-
ing closing after approximately the middle of the
roof opening or when closing from the raised
position, then the closing operation is inter-
rupted and the glass sunroof opens again
somewhat.
Despite the presence of the pinch protec-
tion system, inspect the sunroof's travel
path prior to closing it, as the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-
tions, such as very thin objects, and the sunroof
would continue closing.<
Closing without the pinch protection
system
If there is danger outside, push the switch
beyond the resistance point and hold it there.
The roof closes without the pinch protection
system.
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
After a power supply interruption, it may only
be possible to raise the sunroof. If this has
occurred, have the system reinitialized. BMW
recommends having this work carried out by
your BMW center.

Seat, mirror and steering
wheel memory
You can store and select two different adjust-
ment settings for the driver's seat, exterior mir-
rors and steering wheel.

ory to store and recall two seat positions for
each additional seat.
The adjustment of the lumbar support is not
stored in the memory.

Head restraints
A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the
risk of injury to cervical vertebrae in the event of
an accident.
Adjust the head restraint so that its center
is approx. at ear level. Otherwise, there is
increased danger of injury in the event of an
accident. Only remove the head restraint if no
one will be sitting on the seat in question. Rein-
stall the head restraint before transporting any-
one in the seat. Otherwise, the protective func-
tion of the head restraint is unavailable.<

Transporting children safely
The right place for children
Do not leave children unattended in the
vehicle; otherwise, they could endanger
themselves and other persons, e.g. by opening
the doors.<
Children always in the rear
Accident research shows that the safest place
for children is in the back seat.
Children younger than 13 years of age or
with a height under 5 ft/150 cm may only
be transported in the rear in child restraint sys-
tems which correspond to the age, weight and
height of the child. Otherwise, there is an
increased danger of injury in an accident.<
Children 13 years of age or older must wear a
safety belt as soon as a suitable child restraint
system can no longer be used due to their age,
size, and weight.
Exception for front passenger seat
Should it be necessary to use a child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat, the front, knee and side airbag on the front
passenger side must be deactivated. Other-
wise, there is an increased risk of injury for the
child if the airbags are triggered, even with a
child restraint system. <
More information on Automatic deactivation of
front passenger airbags, refer to page95.
Installing child restraint
systems
Follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer's instructions when selecting,
installing and using child restraint systems.
Otherwise the protective effect may be dimin-
ished.<
In the front passenger seat
Before installing a child restraint system
in the front passenger seat, make sure
that the front, knee, and side airbags on the
passenger side are deactivated. Otherwise,
there is an increased risk of injury when the air-
bags are triggered.<
Backrest width*
The passenger seat backrest width set-
ting must be open all the way. After
installing the child's seat, no memory position
may be called up; otherwise, the stability of the
child's seat on the front passenger seat is
reduced.<
1.Open backrest width completely, refer to
Front comfort seat adjustment on page44.
2.Mount child's seat.
Child seat security
All rear safety belts and the safety belt for the
front passenger can be locked against pulling
out to secure child restraint systems.
Locking safety belt
1.Secure the child restraint system with the
belt.
2.Pull out the belt webbing completely.
3.Allow the belt webbing to be pulled in and
pull taut against the child restraint system.
The safety belt is locked.

Transporting children safely

Routing of the tether strap
Make sure that the tether strap is not
routed over sharp edges and does not
twist on its way to the attachment point; other-
wise, the belt can fail to properly secure the
child restraint system in the event of an acci-
dent.<

During trips
If the vehicle is equipped with rear side
airbags, make sure that children riding in
the rear do not lean out of the child's seat
toward the door panels. Otherwise, injuries can
occur if the side airbags are triggered.<
Child-safety locks for rear doors
Slide down the safety levers on the rear doors:
The door can now be opened from the outside
only.
Safety switch for power windows and
rear seats
If the vehicle is equipped with power seats in
the rear, return these to their standard adjust-
ment setting before using a child restraint fixing
system, refer to page45.
When children are riding in the back, press the
safety switch for the power windows, refer to
page40.
This switch also disables the power rear seat
adjustment.

The flashlight is located on the left side of the
glove compartment.
The flashlight can remain plugged in continu-
ously. Remove the flashlight from the socket
when needed.
Be sure that the flashlight is switched off
when it is inserted into its holder. Failure
to comply with this precaution could lead to
overcharging and damage.<

fuel filler door.
When refueling, insert the filler nozzle com-
pletely into the filler pipe. Avoid raising the filler
nozzle during refueling; otherwise, this
>results in premature pump shutoff
>can lead to reduced efficiency in the fuel-
vapor recovery system
The fuel tank is full when the filler nozzle clicks
off the first time.
Fuel tank capacity
Approx. 23.2 US gal/88 liters, including a
reserve of:
>750i/Li: approx. 2.6 US gal/10 liters.
>760i/Li: approx. 3.1 US gal/12 liters.
Refuel as soon as possible once your
cruising range falls below 30 miles/
50 km; otherwise, engine functions are not
assured and damage can occur.<
