Important Safety Precautions  
!
This manual provides important information that  
will help you safely operate the BMW DVD Rear  
Seat Entertainment System. Please read it  
completely before using the system. Failure  
to follow the cautions or instructions in this  
manual could result in a severe personal injury  
accident and/or damage to the system.  
Maintain audio volume at a level where you can  
still hear outside sounds while driving. Failure  
to do so may result in an accident, or failure to  
hear emergency vehicles.  
To avoid draining the vehicle battery, do not  
operate the system more than 15 minutes  
without starting the engine.  
It is always important to operate your vehicle in  
a safe manner and to avoid distractions while  
driving. Under certain driving conditions, you  
may need to turn the Rear Seat Entertainment  
System ‘OFF’ to avoid distraction and to focus  
all of your attention on the driving task.  
Halt use immediately if a problem occurs.  
Failure to do so may cause personal injury or  
damage to the product. Return to the nearest  
BMW Center for repair.  
Do not operate any function that diverts your  
attention from safely driving your vehicle. Any  
function that requires your prolonged attention  
should only be performed after coming to a  
complete stop in a safe location.
