Adapter for spare key
You will need the adapter to activate the ignition
and to start the vehicle with the spare key.
Take the adapter from the onboard tool kit, refer
to page213.
Press lock button1, slide the cover open and
insert the spare key2 into the adapter. Close
the cover and insert the adapter into the ignition
lock.
Key Memory
The concept
You can set a number of functions of your BMW
individually according to your preferences. Key
Memory ensures that most of these settings are
stored for the remote control currently in use
without you having to do anything. When the
vehicle is unlocked, the corresponding remote
control is detected and the settings stored for it
are called up and carried out.
This means that your BMW will return to your
personal settings even if it has in the meantime
been driven by another person with his/her own
remote control and settings. The individual set-
tings are stored for a maximum of four remote
controls.

Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for opera-
tion whenever the driver's door is closed. This
simultaneously engages and releases the locks
on the following:
>Doors
>Luggage compartment lid
>Fuel filler door
The central locking system can be operated
from the outside:
>via the remote control
>via the driver's door lock
>with Comfort Access
* via the door handles
and from inside via the button for the central
locking system.
When the system is locked from inside, the fuel
filler door remains unlocked. Refer to page34.

Adjusting
44 Also on the passenger side, do not recline the
backrest too far to the rear while the vehicle is
being driven; otherwise, there is a danger in the
event of an accident of 'sliding under' the safety
belt, eliminating the protection normally pro-
vided by the belt.<
Please note the information on damage to
safety belts provided on page49 and the infor-
mation on the active head restraints on
page47.
The concept
You adjust the seat in two stages:
1Preselect the function: the button lights up
brightly

Automatic backrest width adjustment
The backrest automatically moves to the widest
possible position to make it easier to enter and
exit the vehicle, before then returning to the
standard position or the stored memory setting.
This automatic system is influenced on each of
the two seats by their respective door, as well
as on the driver's seat, by the ignition and on the
front passenger's seat, by the safety belt
buckle.

You can also adjust the contour of the backrest
to obtain additional support in the lumbar
region.
The upper hips and spinal column receive sup-
plementary support to help you maintain a
relaxed, upright sitting position.

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.<

control sequence each time you press the but-
ton.
To switch off:
Press and hold the button.
The maximum setting with three lights is
used for rapid cooling, e.g. if the vehicle
has been parked in the sun. After a short time,
the system automatically shifts down one step
in order to prevent excessive cooling.<

tance of following traffic based what you see in
the mirror, as this will increase your risk of acci-
dent.<

Transporting children safely

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.

Replacing components
218
Battery switch
Before storing the vehicle for an extended
period of several weeks or more, slide the bat-
tery switch located behind the trim panel on the
right side of the luggage compartment to OFF.
This reduces the current flow from the battery
for the period during which the vehicle remains
parked. A message appears on the Info Display.
Please take note of the supplementary informa-
tion provided on the Control Display.
Disposal
Have old batteries disposed of following
replacement at your BMW center or bring
them to a collection point. Maintain the battery
in an upright position for transport and storage.
Always secure the battery to prevent it from tip-
ping over during transport.<
Power failure
After a temporary interruption in electrical
power, the functioning of some equipment may
be limited and must be reinitialized. Individual
settings are also lost and must be updated
again:
>Seat, mirror, and steering wheel memory
The positions must be stored again, refer to
page46.
>Time and date
These must be reset, refer to page84.
>Radio
Stations must be stored again, refer to
page158.
>Navigation system
You must wait until it becomes operational
again, refer to Inserting navigation CDs/
DVDs on page130.
Fuses
Never attempt to repair a blown fuse, and
do not replace a defective fuse with a sub-
stitute of another color or amperage rating, as
this could lead to a circuit overload, ultimately
resulting in a fire in the vehicle.<
Spare fuses and plastic tweezers are stored in
the fuse box in the luggage compartment.
In glove compartment
Press the tab on the cover to the front, then fold
down the cover.
Additional information about fuse allocations is
provided on the fuse card in the compartment.
In the luggage compartment
Pull the handle to fold down the trim on the right
wall.
Additional information about fuse allocations is
provided on the side panel.
