LATCH* child-restraint
system
LATCH: Lower Anchor and Tethers for
CHildren.
If the vehicle is equipped with electric
power seats, these must be returned
to their standard adjustment setting before
a LATCH child-restraint system can be
used, refer to page 47.<
Access to anchorage points
The rear outer seating positions are pro-
vided with anchors for a LATCH child-
restraint system. The illustrations show the
left rear seat as an example.
The outer anchorage points for the LATCH
child-restraint system are identified by
flags.
Canadian models only:
The anchorage points for the LATCH child-
restraint system are identified by buttons.
You can obtain an installation guide
for mounting LATCH child-restraint
systems at your BMW center. The guide,
although not necessary for installation of a
LATCH child-restraint system, will facilitate
the installation and also help protect the
vehicle's seating surfaces. Always observe
all instructions for installation and use pro-
vided by the child-restraint's manufac-
turer.<
Engage the buckle on the center belt and
then pull the belt away from the child-
restraint's anchorage point.
Firmly press the installation guide into the
gap between the upholstery on seat and
backrest, continuing until the two funnel-
shaped guides snap into place in the
LATCH support braces in the seat.
Pull the installation guides to remove.
Child-safety locks

The door can now be opened from the out-
side only.
