ControlsOpening and closing
After switching off the ignition
When the remote control is removed or the igni-
tion is switched off, you can still operate the roof
for approx. 1 minute as long as no door has
been opened.
Pinch protection system
If the glass roof encounters an obstruction dur-
ing closing from approximately the middle of
the opening in the roof, or during closing from
the tilted position, the closing movement is
interrupted and the glass roof is opened again
slightly.
Despite the pinch protection system
check and clear the roof's travel path prior
to closing it; otherwise, the safety system might
fail to detect certain kinds of obstructions, such
as very thin objects, and the roof would con-
tinue closing. <
Closing without pinch protection
If there is an external danger, press the switch
forward past the resistan ce point and hold it
there. The roof closes without pinch protection.
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
After a power failure, there is a possibility that
the glass roof can only be tilted. The system
must be initialized. BMW recommends having
this work performed at your BMW center.
Convertible: convertible top
The fully automatic top combines reliable
weather protection with simple and easy-to-
use operation.
The following tips will enhance your driving
pleasure in your Convertible:
> It is recommended that you close the con-
vertible top whenever the vehicle is parked.
The closed convertible top not only pro-
tects the vehicle interior from damage due
to unforeseen bad we ather, but also pro- vides a certain degree of protection against
theft. However, even when the top is
closed, valuables should
only be stored in
the locked trunk.
> Do not mount any roof rack systems on the
convertible top.
> If the top is opened while it is wet, e.g. after
driving in the rain, water may drip into the
trunk. If necessary, remove items from the
trunk beforehand to av oid water stains or
soiling.
At temperatures below +14 7/–10 6, do
not move the convertible top as this could
result in damage.
Do not keep the convertible top in the convert-
ible top box for longer than one day if it is wet;
otherwise, the moistu re may cause damage.
Do not place objects on the convertible top, as
otherwise they may fall off when you operate
the convertible top and cause damage or injury.
Never move the converti ble top when the roll-
over protection system is in the activated
position.
Always completely finish the operation of the
convertible top. Driving with the convertible top
incompletely opened or closed can result in
damage or injury.
Do not reach into the mechanism during the
opening or closing procedure. Keep children
away from the opening/closing path of the
convertible top.
For safety reasons, only operate the convertible
top while the vehicle is standing. <
While opening and closing, the convert-
ible top pivots upward. When operating
the convertible top in a garage, under a bridge,
etc., ensure that there are at least 6.5 ft/2 m of
headroom; otherwise, the vehicle may be
damaged. <

ControlsOpening and closing
If the opening or closing procedure is inter-
rupted for an extended period, the convertible
top remains in the raised position for approx.
10 minutes and then slowly moves to a stable
position.
A convertible top which is not completely
open or closed is hazardous. <
If the convertible top is not fully opened or
closed, the trunk lid cannot be opened
and the windows cannot be moved. <
Convenient opening and closing using
the remote control
Refer to page 34.
Closing manually
Only close the convertible top manually if
it is absolutely nece ssary. Never open it
manually. The convertible top box cover cannot
be locked if there is an electrical defect and
would then open while the vehicle is in motion.
Incorrect handling can result in damage. <
Closing the convertible top manually should be
performed by two people. The rear seats must
not be occupied.
Only move the converti ble top and the convert-
ible top box cover when th e ignition is switched
off.
Before closing

Vehicle equipment
In this chapter, all production, country, and
optional equipment that is offered in the model
range is described. As a result, some equip-
ment described may not be
available in a partic-
ular vehicle, for example due to the options or
national-market version selected. This also
applies to safety related functions and systems.
Sitting safely
The ideal sitting position can make a vital
contribution to relaxed, fatigue-free driving. In
conjunction with the sa fety belts, the head
restraints and the airbags, the seated position
has a major influence on your safety in the event
of an accident. To ensu re that the safety sys-
tems operate with optimal efficiency, we
strongly urge you to observe the instructions
contained in the following section.
For additional information on transporting
children safely, refer to page 58.
Airbags
Always maintain an adequate distance
between yourself and the airbags. Always
grip the steering wheel on the rim, with your
hands in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions,
to minimize the risk of injury to the hands or
arms in the event of the airbag being triggered
off.
No one and nothing should come between the
airbags and the seat occupant.
Do not use the cover of the front airbag on the
front passenger side as a storage area. Make
sure that the front passeng er is sitting correctly,
i.e. not resting feet or legs on the dashboard;
otherwise, leg injuries ca n occur if the front air-
bag deploys.
Make sure that passen gers keep their heads
away from the side airbag and do not lean against the cover of the
head airbag; otherwise,
serious injuries can result if the airbag
deploys. <
Even if you follow all the instructions, injuries
resulting from contact with airbags cannot be
fully excluded, depending on the circum-
stances. The ignition and inflation noise may
provoke a mild hearing loss in extremely
sensitive individuals. This effect is usually only
temporary.
For airbag locations and additional information
on airbags, refer to page 97.
Head restraint
A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the
risk of neck injury in the event of an accident.
Adjust the head restraint in such a way
that its center is at approx. ear level.
Otherwise, there is an incr eased risk of injury in
the event of an accident. <
Head restraints, refer to page 52.
Safety belt
Before every drive, make sure that all occupants
wear their safety belts. Airbags complement the
safety belt as an additi onal safety device, but
they do not represent a substitute.
Your vehicle has four se ats, each of which is
equipped with a safety belt.
Never allow more than one person to
wear a single safety belt. Never allow
infants or small children to ride in a passenger's
lap. Make sure that the be lt in the lap area sits
low across the hips and does not press against
the abdomen.
The safety belt must not rest against the throat,
run across sharp edges, pass over hard or frag-
ile objects or be pinched. Fasten the safety belt
so that it sits as snugly as possible against the
lap and shoulder without being twisted. Other-
wise, the belt could slide over your hips and
