Purpose of the System
The roll over protection system (RPS) is a passive safety system that is designed to deploy
only if the vehicle is in danger of rolling over, to afford vehicle occupants additional protec-
tion. In addition to the reinforcing tube integrated in the windshield frame, RPS ensures that
all the rear passengers are provided with necessary head clearance should th e car roll over.
The system is similar to the roll over protection system used on the E36iC. The electronic
control module for roll over detection and deployment remains the same as on the E36iC.
However, the system has been redesigned in terms of function, solidity and safety.
