In the rear, the belt buckle with
the word CENTER is intended
exclusively for passengers sitting in the
middle.
If it is not possible to extract the center
belt, this indicates that the larger back-
rest is not securely locked, refer to
page 120.<
Safety belt height adjustment
You can adjust the safety belts to fit
your own physical dimensions by using
the safety belt height adjustment:
Slide the button up or down as
required.
Also observe the instructions on
adjusting the seats on page 44.
If the safety belt system has been
subjected to the stresses involved
in an accident or otherwise damaged:
Have the entire safety belt system
replaced by your BMW Sports Activity
Vehicle center. In addition, have your
BMW Sports Activity Vehicle center
inspect the safety belt anchors. Other-
wise, the safety function can no longer
be ensured.c
