Electric steering wheel
adjustment
In order to make it easier to get into and
out of the car, the steering wheel auto-
matically moves into the top position
and returns to the driving (memory) po-
sition.
This automatic feature is controlled by
the position of the ignition key and by
the driver's door.
Your BMW center can adjust your
vehicle's systems in such a man-
ner that your personalized settings are
automatically called up for the steering
wheel adjustment when you unlock the
vehicle with your personal remote con-
trol.<
1 Backrest angle
The steering wheel can be moved in
any of four directions. Adjust by moving
the control lever in the desired direc-
tion.

3 Lumbar support
The head restraint extends automati-
cally whenever a passenger fastens the
safety belt at one of the rear seating po-
sitions.
Do not adjust the steering wheel
while the vehicle is moving. There
is a risk of accident from unexpected
movement.<

switch 2.
To store the steering wheel setting, re-
fer to "Seat, mirror and steering wheel
memory" on page 53.
