Stowing cargo
If you are transporting a load in your
BMW:
> Load heavy cargo as far forward as
possible – directly behind the back-
rests or the luggage compartment
partition – and as low as possible.
> Cover sharp edges and corners.
> Do not pile objects higher than the
top edge of the backrest.
> If you are transporting very heavy
loads when the rear seat is not occu-
pied, secure the outer safety belts in
the opposite buckle.

Securing the load

luggage net or use draw straps

BMW center for load-securing de-
vices
*. The lashing eyes provided at
the corners of the luggage compart-
ment serve for mounting these load-
securing devices.
> Read and comply with the informa-
tion enclosed with the load-securing
devices.
