2016 MINI Clubman seats

The lamp indicates whether the airbags are ei‐
ther activated or deactivated.
▷The indicator lamp lights up
when a child is properly
seated in a child restraint fix‐
ing system or when the seat
is empty. The airbags on the
front passenger side are not
activated.
▷The indicator lamp does not light up when,
for example, a correctly seated person of
sufficient size is detected on the seat. The
airbags on the front passenger side are ac‐
tivated.
Detected child seats
The system generally detects children seated in
a child seat, particularly in child seats required
by NHTSA when the vehicle was manufactured.
After installing a child seat, make sure that the
indicator lamp for the front-seat passenger air‐
bags lights up. This indicates that the child seat
has been detected and the front-seat passen‐
ger airbags are not activated.
Strength of the driver's and front-seat
passenger airbag
The explosive power that activates driver's/
front passenger's airbags very much depends
on the positions of the driver's/front passeng‐
er's seat.
To maintain the accuracy of this function over
the long-term, calibrate the front seats as soon
as a relevant Check Control message is dis‐
played. A message also appears on the Control
Display.
Calibrating the front seats
WARNING
There is risk of jamming when moving the
seats. There is risk of injuries or risk of property
damage. Make sure that the area of movement
of the seat is clear prior to any adjustment.◀
An appropriate Check Control message is dis‐
played.
1.Move the respective seat all the way for‐
ward.
2.Move the respective seat forward again. It
moves forward briefly.
3.Readjust the seat to the desired position.
The calibration procedure is completed when
the Check Control message disappears.
If the message continues to be displayed, re‐
peat the calibration.
If the message does not disappear after a re‐
peat calibration, have the system checked as
soon as possible.
Tire Pressure Monitor
TPM
The concept
The system monitors tire inflation pressure in
the four mounted tires. The system warns you if
there is a significant loss of pressure in one or
more tires. For this purpose, sensors in the tire
valves measure the tire inflation pressure.
Information
With use of the system observe further infor‐
mation found under Tire inflation pressure, re‐
fer to page 182.
Functional requirements
The system must have been reset with the cor‐
rect tire inflation pressure; otherwise, reliable
signaling of tire pressure loss is not assured.
Reset the system after each adjustment of the
tire inflation pressure and after every tire or
wheel change.
Always use wheels with TPM electronics to en‐
sure that the system will operate properly.

Enlarging the trunk
The concept
The trunk can be enlarged by folding down the
rear seat backrest.
Without through-loading system: The rear
backrest is divided 60–40. The backrest of the
left seat is connected to the backrest center
section.
With through-loading system: the rear seat
backrest is divided into three parts at a
40/20/40 ratio.
The sides can be folded down separately or to‐
gether.
Information
WARNING
Danger of jamming with folding down the
backrests. There is risk of injuries or risk of
property damage. Make sure that the area of
movement of the rear backrest is clear prior to
folding down.◀
WARNING
The stability of the child restraint system
is limited or compromised with incorrect seat
adjustment or improper installation of the child
seat. There is risk of injuries or danger to life.
Make sure that the child restraint system fits
securely against the backrest. If possible, adjust
the backrest tilt for all affected backrests and
correctly adjust the seats. Make sure that seats
and backrests are securely engaged. If possible,
adjust the height of the head restraints or re‐
move them.◀
WARNING
With an unlocked backrest, an unsecured
load can be thrown into the car's interior, for
example in case of an accident, braking or eva‐
sive maneuver. There is risk of injuries. Make
sure that the backrest engages into the locking
after folding it back.◀
WARNING
With a rear backrest that is not locked,
the protective function of the middle safety belt
is not guaranteed. There is risk of injuries or
danger to life. If you are using the middle safety
belt, lock the wider rear backrest.◀
WARNING
Body parts can be jammed when moving
the head restraint. There is risk of injuries.
Make sure that the area of movement is clear
when moving the head restraint.◀
Folding down rear seat backrests
The rear seat backrest can be folded down
from the front or from the trunk.
The right backrest can be folded down sepa‐
rately. The left backrest can be folded down in
combination with the middle section. Fold in
the middle head restraint.
Reach into the recess and fold forward.
Folding down the middle section
1.Fold in the middle head restraint.Seite 153Interior equipmentCONTROLS153

Folding back the backrest
WARNING
With an unlocked backrest, an unsecured
load can be thrown into the car's interior, for
example in case of an accident, braking or eva‐
sive maneuver. There is risk of injuries. Make
sure that the backrest engages into the locking
after folding it back.◀
Fold up the backrest and press it into the latch.
Make sure that the safety belt is not pinched.
Adjusting the backrest tilt
WARNING

The Coasting driving condition is enabled under
certain conditions.
Under certain conditions the engine is auto‐
matically decoupled from the transmission in
selector lever position D. The vehicle continues
traveling with the engine idling to reduce fuel
consumption. Selector lever position D remains
engaged. An indicator provides information
about the distance traveled in Coasting mode.
In addition, context-sensitive instructions are
displayed to assist with an optimized fuel con‐
sumption driving style.
The achieved extended range is displayed in
the instrument cluster.
Overview
The system includes the following MINIMAL
functions and displays:
▷GREEN bonus range, refer to page 171.▷GREEN tips driving instruction, refer to
page 171.
