loading
always operate the convertible top at any time. Conversely, when the convertible top is closed, raise the convertible top compartment base before stowing your cargo in the luggage compartment to avoid any damage to the convertible top compartment or your load. <
Always position and secure the load correctly. If you do not, it can endanger the passengers during braking or evasive maneuvers. Do not exceed the permissible gross weight and axle load (refer to page 180), otherwise the vehicle's operating safety is no longer assured and you are in violation of the law. Do not stow heavy or hard objects in the passenger compartment without first securing them. Otherwise they would be thrown around during braking and evasive maneuvers and endanger the occupants. <
Stowing cargo
If you are transporting a load in your BMW: > Load heavy cargo as far forward as possible directly behind the backrests or the luggage compartment partition and as low as possible. With the convertible top closed you can increase the size of the luggage compartment, refer to page 41, by folding up the convertible top compartment base. It is advisable to always fold down the convertible top compartment base as soon as you have removed your load from the luggage compartment. 01 41 0 155 719 - © 12/00 BMW AG
