Alarm system
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds:
>When a door, the hood, or the luggage
compartment lid is opened
>To movement in the vehicle's interior Ð
interior motion sensor
>To changing the vehicle's tilt if someone
attempts to steal the wheels or tow the
vehicle
>To interruption of battery voltage.
The system responds to unauthorized
vehicle entry and attempted theft by simul-
taneously activating:
>An acoustic alarm, which lasts for a
period of approx. 30 seconds
>The hazard warning flashers for approx.
five minutes
>The high beams, which flash on and off
in the same rhythm.
Arming and disarming the alarm
system
When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either
with the remote control unit or at the door
lock, the alarm system is armed or dis-
armed at the same time.
The system indicates that it has been cor-
rectly armed by switching on the hazard
warning flashers for a single cycle and by
emitting an acoustic signal.
You can have different acknowledg-
ment signals set to confirm arming
and disarming.<
You can open the luggage compartment
lid even if the alarm is armed using
button 3of the remote control, refer
to page 36. It is armed once again when
the lid is closed.
Pressing the Panic mode button for a
longer period triggers the alarm, refer
to page 36.<
Indicator lamp displays
>The indicator lamp below the interior
rearview mirror flashes continuously:
the system is armed
>The indicator lamp flashes when the
system is armed: door(s), the hood or
luggage compartment lid are not com-
pletely closed. Even if you do not close
the alerted area, the system begins to
monitor the remaining areas, and the
indicator lamp flashes continuously
after 10 seconds. However, the interior
motion sensor is not activated
>The indicator lamp goes out when the
system is disarmed: no manipulation or
attempted intrusions have been
detected in the period since the system
was armed
>If the indicator lamp flashes for roughly
5 minutes when you disarm the system,
or until the remote control unit is
inserted in the ignition lock: an
attempted entry has been detected in
the period since the system was armed.
Following triggering of an alarm, the indi-
cator lamp will flash continuously.
Avoiding unintentional alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor may be switched off at the same
time. You can do this to prevent a false
alarm from being triggered in garages with
elevator ramps, for instance, or when the
vehicle is transported by trailer or train:

When you close the windows they will
slow down as they approach the end
of their travel; this is to allow the safety fea-
ture to respond more precisely to any
obstructions encountered in this critical
range.<
Safety switch
With the safety switch, you can prevent the
rear windows from being opened or closed
via the switches in the rear passenger area,
by children, for example. The switch also
deactivates the rear-mounted switches
controlling the rear seats' power adjust-
ment, refer to page 47, and the rear
window sun blinds, refer to page 115. The
indicator lamp lights up when this safety
feature is activated.
Press the safety switch whenever
children are riding in the rear of the
vehicle. Careless use of the power win-
dows can lead to injury.<
The remote control unit must be
locked in position in the ignition lock
before this safety feature can be deacti-
vated.<
After installing accessories
After installing any accessory Ð such as a
clamp-on antenna for a portable phone Ð
within the window's travel range, you will
need to have the system reinitialized for
use under the new conditions. Please con-
tact your BMW center for assistance.
Sliding/tilt sunroof*
To prevent injuries, exercise care
when closing the sliding/tilt sunroof
and keep it in your field of vision until it is
shut.
When leaving the vehicle, always disen-
gage the remote control in the ignition lock
and close the doors to prevent children
from operating the sunroof and injuring
themselves, etc.<
Raising Ð opening Ð closing
From radio mode on, press the switch, or
slide it in the desired direction up to the
pressure point.
After the ignition is switched off the sunroof
remains available for operation:
>For approx. 15 minutes with the remote
control unit in the radio mode
>For approx. 1 minute in position 0 or
with the remote control unit disen-
gaged.
The headliner insert slides back somewhat
when you raise the sunroof. When the sun-
roof is opened the headliner retracts with it.
Do not use force to close the head-
liner insert with the sunroof in its
raised position, as damage to the mecha-
nism could result.<
For information on using the convenience
operation mode at the door lock or with the
remote control unit, refer to page 36 or 37.

Adjustments
Sit safely
The ideal sitting position can make a vital
contribution to relaxed driving that is as
fatigue-free as possible. The sitting posi-
tion plays an important role together with
the safety belts and airbags in providing
occupants with maximum levels of passive
safety in an accident. To ensure that the
safety systems operate with optimal effi-
ciency, we strongly urge you to observe the
instructions contained in the following sec-
tion.
For additional information on transporting
children safely, refer to page 57.
Sitting safely with airbags
Always maintain an adequate dis-
tance between yourself and the air-
bags. Always hold the steering wheel by
its rim with hands at the 9 o'clock and
3 o'clock positions, to minimize the risk of
injuries to your hands and arms in the event
of airbag deployment.
No one and nothing is to come between the
airbags and the seat occupant.
To prevent possible leg injuries should the
knee airbag deploy in an accident, ensure
that the front passenger assumes a correct
sitting position. Do not use the cover of the
front airbag on the front passenger side as
a storage area for objects, or as a rest for
feet or legs.<
For airbag locations and additional infor-
mation on airbags, refer to page 55.
Safe sitting position with safety belts
For the safety of all vehicle occupants,
please comply with the following instruc-
tions for wearing safety belts.
Never allow more than one person to
wear a single safety belt. Never allow
infants or small children to ride in a pas-
senger's lap.
Avoid twisting the belt while routing it firmly
across the hips and shoulder. Wear it as snugly against your body as possible. Do
not allow the belt to rest against hard or
fragile objects.
Do not route the belt across your neck, or
run it across sharp edges. Be sure that the
belt does not become caught or jammed.
Avoid wearing loose or bulky clothing that
would prevent the belt from resting
securely against your body; pull on the
shoulder strap periodically to keep it ten-
sioned.
In the event of a frontal impact, a loose lap
belt could slide over your hips, leading to
abdominal injury. In addition, the safety
belt's restraint effectiveness is reduced if
the belt is worn loosely.
Expectant mothers should always wear
their safety belts, taking care to position
the lap belt against the lower hips, where it
will not exert pressure against the abdom-
inal area.<
For putting on safety belts, refer to
page 50.
Seats
For your personal safety when adjusting
the seat position, please follow the instruc-
tions below carefully.
Never attempt to adjust your seat
while operating the vehicle. The seat
could respond with unexpected move-
ment, and the ensuing loss of vehicle con-
trol could lead to an accident.
Never recline the backrest to an extremely
horizontal position while operating the
vehicle Ð this precaution is especially
important for front passengers and the
occupants of electric power rear seats to
remember. Failure to observe these pre-
cautions can prevent the belts from pro-
viding effective protection against injury, as
passengers could slide under the belts in
an accident.<
