    SAFETY AND SECURITY FEATURES 
    A number  of new or  improved  safety and security features  are 
    incorporated  in 
    E39 cars. 
    Safety cage 
    4 The body safety  cage is a continuation  of an  established 
    BMW concept for passenger protection.  Tubular impact 
    structures built into the body provide protection against  pas- 
    senger  injury during  front  or rear impacts. 
    Door locks and door handles 
    4 The door handles allow easy door opening, but are secure  in 
    accidents. 
    Electrical components  in the  locks  are fully encapsulated and 
    cannot  be picked  easily. The door handles, latches  and 
    loclc 
    assemblies offer reliability and security against theft. 
    Door  position and 
    loclc condition  are detected  by hall  sensors. 
    Roof padding 
    In addition to the side and  head protection  airbags, there is 
    supplementary  padding at the roof pillars  and along the  roof 
    above the  doors. This is positioned  to present  energy absorb- 
    ing 
    surlaces to passengers thrown  around by side impact 
    forces. 
    Seat  belts 
    Each front seat  belt assembly has a height-adjustable anchor 
    at  the  8-pillar. 
    An  automatic pyrotechnic (explosive charge) tensioner tight- 
    ens the  front belt at the buckle  upon impact, snugging  up lap 
    and  shoulder segments of  the belt.  The tensioners are de- 
    signed  to automatically  tension the belts by about 
    2 inches 
    (55 mm)  in the event  ofa collision. 
    A force limiter  puts an upper limit  on the amount  of iorce  each 
    belt can  exert on the passenger.

    Airbags 
    Front airbags, s~de a~rbags, pyrotechnic seat belt tensioners 
    and  the Battery  Safety Terminal (BST)  are integrated into the 
    Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)  and its variants. 
    NOTE- 
    The  BMW  SRS system  is called  Multiple Restra~nt System 
    (MRS).  Over the  years, 
    E39 cars were  equipped  with MRS, 
    MRS 
    11, MRS  111. Each  version  offers varied  features and im- 
    provements  over the previous  system. 
    < As many  as 8 airbags may be installed  in E39 cars, depend- 
    ing on model  and MRS  version. 
    The  front 
    airbags operate without sodium  azide propellant, 
    widely  considered an irritant  when an 
    airbag is deployed. 
    Starting with 
    1999 models. smartfront passenger  and driver 
    airbags were  installed. These are  of the  dual-threshold,  dual 
    stage  design,  including  a 
    sensorto help prevent the unneces- 
    sary  deployment  of the passenger  side 
    airbag if the  seat  is un- 
    occupied. 
    MRS control Depend~ng on  options chosen,  one airbag may be installed  in module each door of  the sedan  and Sport Wagon models,  protecting 
    passengers against 
    s~de impacts. 
    Head Protection System (ITS) 
    airbags strelch diagonally 
    across the tops  of the  front  doors. 
    Airbag deployment automatically triggers fuel  shutoff, turns 
    on  the  hazard and interior lights,  and unlocks the doors. 
    - - 
    WARNING - 
    Airbags are inflated by an  explosive  device. Handled im- 
    properly  or without  adequate  safeguards, 
    airbag units can 
    be  very  dangerous.  Special precautions  must be observed 
    prior  to any  worlc  at or near  any of  the airbags.  See 
    721 Air- 
    bag System  (SRS). 
    Always disconnect  the battery  and cover  the negative 
    (-) battery terminal  with an insulator before starting di- 
    agnostic, troubleshooting or service  work on cars  fitted 
    with  SRS,  and before doing any  welding on the 
    car.

    Battery  safety terminal 
    (BST) 
    4 Starting  with 1999 models (9198 production  and later), a py- 
    rotechnic  (explosive charge) device automatically discon- 
    nects the  battery positive terminal  during impacts.  Key 
    features, 
    like power windows and door  locks, remain opera- 
    tional. 
    Security 
    Electronic immobilization (EWS) 
    Ignition  key transponder signal  All 
    E39  vehicles incorporate  an electronic immobilization  sys- 
    tem  known  as EWS. This  svstem uses a wireless comrnuni- 
    cation  link between a transponder chip in the  ignition  key and 
    the  ring  antenna  surrounding the ignition switch. The  EWS 
    control  module blocks  the starting of the  vehicle unless  the 
    correct coded  ignition key is used. 
    NOTE- 
    Electronic  immobilization is sometimes referred  to as  the 
    driveaway  protection  system. 
    Antitheft  alarm (DWA) 
    This is  adealer-installed  option for which the E39 vehicles  are 
    factory-wired.  When armed, the system monitors door 
    loci( 
    contacts  and trunk  and engine  hood locks  and sounds a siren 
    if it detects tampering. 
    E39  interiors have a unique character, with a combination 
    of 
    sporty  features and  innovativedesign.  All body versions were 
    made  in a wide choice  of interior and exterior colors. New  col- 
    ors  with matching  leather or leatherette upholstery  were intro- 
    duced  for each  model  year. 
    Driving 
    comfort is enhanced by power steering, tilt steering 
    wheel,  height-adjustable front  seats, and electrically adjust- 
    able  and heated rear-view mirrors. Inside  the car there are 
    reading  lights at four  seating positions.

    Seats 
    4 Anatomically correct seats are constructed  from polyure- 
    10 way seat  adjustment  thane foam 
    containing areas or zones  of different firmness. 
    They  offer good  lateral support  without constricting the occu- 
    pant. 
    The  seats have a passive internal ventilation system:  Cylin- 
    drical cavities within  the cushions and backrests generate a 
    pumping  effect as the ride motions cause  occupant motion. 
    This 
    helps remove moisture and feeds  fresh air into  the seats. 
    Other features  of the  seating system: 
    The  seat  bases have steel springs  for added  support  and 
    strength. 
    The  seat  control  switches are along  the outside edge  of 
    the 
    seat. 
    Heated seats  are an option  in all models 
    In  cars  equipped  with seat position memory,  three different 
    seat confiaurations  can be memorized by the  seat control 
    module(s): Seat memory  coordinates  with outside  mirror 
    memory.  These functions are  controlled by the seat  mem- 
    ory 
    module(s). 
    * For security reasons,  the release lever  to fold  the rear seat 
    backrest forward is  installed in the  trunk. 
    Sport  Wagon models: Rear seat 
    baclts are split 60140, with 
    the center armrest on  the left seat back. 
    The  center armrest  incorporates  a non adjustable  head- 
    rest. When folded down,  the armrest  opens out with 
    cup- 
    holders and a storage  compartment. See 520 Seats for 
    more  details. 
    instruments and controls 
    Everything  in the interior  passengercompartment  essential to 
    the  driver  is logically grouped and easy to reach. All  instru- 
    ments  and controls have  been arranged  ergonomically and 
    are fully  integrated  into the overall design  of the  vehicle. 
    Tilt-telescopic steering wheel  has 
    30 mm (1.2 in) of vertical 
    and  longitudinal  adjustment. 
    Multifunction  steering wheel contains two 
    ltey pads con- 
    taining  controls  for the sound  system, telephone and 
    cruise control. 
    Padded  dashboard  houses the instrument cluster  and the 
    ventilation  and heating  system.   
    						
    							
    Instrument cluster 
    Instrument cluster uses large  easy-to-read  analog instru- 
    ments  and is removable  as a unit without removing  the dash- 
    board.  On-board  computer and  Check Control  functions  are 
    integrated into  the instrument cluster  displays. 
    Service  Interval Display 
    Service  Interval Display calculates vehicle service  needs 
    based  on current  driving patterns, and indicates  to the  driver 
    when  the car requires 
    service 
    On-board  navigation 
    An  integrated  on-board navigation  system, based on Global 
    Positioning System (GPS)  technology, is optionally available 
    on 
    E39 cars.  When  installed, a multifunction  monitor is includ- 
    ed  in the  center  of the dash  above the radio.  in addition  to dis- 
    playing navigation  system information,  this monitor  accesses 
    On-Board Computerfunctions, audiosystem  controls, mobile 
    phone  dialling and memory, and automatic ventilation. 
    Park Distance  Control (PDC) 
    Park  Distance Control  (PDC) is an optional system  which 
    uses ultrasonic sensors  in the  rear bumper  trim to warn  the 
    driver  of approaching  too close to obstacles  when parlting. 
    Central body electronics 
    E39 vehicles are equipped  with an integrated complex  of 
    electronic  modules connected  mostly via K-Bus. This system, 
    called central  body electronics  (ZKE 
    Ill), is primarily con- 
    trolled  by the general  module (GM 
    Ill). An overview  of ZKE Ill 
    functions is found  in 600 Electrical System-General.  Details 
    of  ZKE 
    Ill functioning  is in  the  following repair groups:
