rollover protection
system
The rollover protection system is automatically
activated in the event of a sufficiently severe
accident or with an extreme inclination in the
longitudinal axis. The roll bar located behind the
rear seat headrest is projected within a fraction
of a second.
In addition to the reinforced windshield frame,
the rollover protection system increases the
safety for the vehicle occupants.
Never block the travel path of the rollover
protection system with any objects.
Always wear your safety belt, it protects you in a
minor car accident and, depending on the
severity of the accident, the safety belt tensioner
and the multilevel airbag system will protect
you.<

If the rollover protection system releases
accidentally, have your MINI dealer check it.
If the rollover protective system is
extended, do not operate the convertible
top.

nents or the electrical wiring of the rollover
protective system.

tion system of your MINI only carried out by an
authorized MINI dealer.

system or malfunctions.
Check the system regularly and in order to
ensure a long service life of all functions, it is
mandatory to maintain the service intervals,
