Cargo Area - BMW SERIE 3 SPORT WAGON 2002 Owner's Manual

Cargo area

Folding rear backrest
Reach into the recess and pull forward
(arrow).
When you fold back the backrest,
be sure that the catch engages
securely. The red warning indicator
disappears in the recess when the
retainer is locked.<
Cargo area cover
Pull out the cover and suspend it by
attaching to the retainers.
You can carry light objects such as
articles of clothing on the cover.
Never use the cover to carry
heavy or hard objects, as such
objects could pose a hazard to the
vehicle's occupants during sudden
braking maneuvers.
Guide the cover back into place; do not
allow it to snap back, as it could sustain
damage.<
*
Partition net
Use the loop to pull out the partition
net, then grasp both sides of the rod
and insert it in its holder. It is easiest to
do this from the back seat.
Do not allow the partition net to
snap back. Doing so could pose a
risk of injury and the partition net could
be damaged.<
If the backrests are folded forward, the
case can be stored on the backrests;
you can then extract the partition net
and hold it in place by inserting the
retainers in the front holders (refer to
next page).
