■ Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) comprising,
say, ADB-X, CBC, DBC, and HDC; DSC detects the
risk of swerving right from the start, stabilising the car
within fractions of a second. The DSC suspension con-
trol system ensures greater driving stability above all in
bends.
Theairbags and all further safety components are per-
fectly coordinated in a BMW, so that in a collision only
the airbag actually required is activated. Such activa-
tion of the airbag varies in intensity, depending on the
impact. Up to 10 airbags offer protection precisely
where required: Driver and front passenger airbags,
head airbags front and rear, as well as side airbags at
the front and, as an option, at the rear.
■ Dynamic Brake Control (DBC) provides brake
assistance building up maximum brake pressure in an
emergency even if the driver fails to properly press
down the brake pedal, significantly shortening your
BMW's stopping distance in the process.
■ Bumpers with regenerating aluminium impact
absorbers take up impacts without damage at speeds
up to 4 km/h; special deformation zones front and rear
absorb forces at up to 15 km/h without any damage to
the body.
■ BMW restraint system forthe driver and front pas-
senger, combining the three-point seat belt (with
manual belt height adjustment on the B-pillar), belt
latch tensioner, belt force governor and anti-sub-
marining ramp in the seat, for optimum restraint in
a collision.
■ Door reinforcements ensure maximum occupant
protection in a side-on collision. This safety is pro-
vided by diagonal reinforcement profiles in the door
ensuring supreme door stiffness.
■ Hill Descent Control (HDC) enables your BMW
to take even the steepest downhill gradients slowly and
surely all by itself, just slightly faster than walking pace.
As an option the driver may also control HDC via but-
tons in the multifunction steering wheel.
■ The sports driver knows that when you apply the
brakes the loads acting on the rear wheels are reduced,
possibly making the vehicle swerve round in a bend (1).
CBC Cornering Brake Control counteracts this
effect by asymmetrically adjusting brake pressure (2)
in order to generate a stabilising counterforce (3)
even before ABS cuts in.
■ Automatic Differential Brake (ADB-X) providing
the same function as differential locks by intervening
on demand on individual wheels. A wheel about to spin
is automatically slowed down by ADB-X until regaining
its grip and conveying drive forces. With DSC acti-
vated, ADB-Xis supplemented byengine output con-
trol, with DSC switched off the function is set to max-
imum drive and traction.
