ated from the outside

Protect the remote control against
unauthorized use by handing over
only the spare key, for example when using
hotel valet parking.<
You can find more detailed information on
the alarm system on page 32.

Indicator lamp displays
>The indicator lamp below the interior
rearview mirror flashes continuously:
the system is armed
>The indicator lamp flashes on locking:
door(s) or luggage compartment lid are
not completely closed. Even if you do
not close the alerted area, the system
begins to monitor the remaining areas,
and the indicator lamp flashes continu-
ously after approx.10 seconds. How-
ever, the interior motion sensor is not
activated
>The indicator lamp goes out on unlock-
ing: no manipulation or attempted intru-
sions have been detected in the period
since the system was armed
>The indicator lamp flashes on unlocking
before the remote control is inserted in
the ignition lock, but for no more than
roughly 5 minutes: an attempted entry
has been detected in the period since
the system was armed.
Following triggering of an alarm, the indica-
tor lamp will flash continuously.
Tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor
Tilt alarm sensor
Monitors the inclination of the vehicle. The
alarm system reacts, for example, if some-
one attempts to steal the wheels or tow the
vehicle.
Interior motion sensor
Coupe:
In order for the interior motion sensor to
function properly, the windows and glass
roof must be completely closed.
Convertible:
Monitors the interior up to the height of the
seat cushions. This means that the alarm
system, including the interior motion sen-
sor, is armed even if the convertible top is
open. Falling objects, e.g. leaves, can trig-
ger false alarms, refer to Avoiding uninten-
tional alarms.
Avoiding unintentional alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor may be switched off at the same
time. This is how you prevent unintentional
alarms, e.g. in the following situations:
>In garages with elevator ramps
>During transport on automobile trans-
port trains
>If animals are to remain in the vehicle.
Switching off tilt alarm sensor and
interior motion sensor
Press the button on the remote con-
trol once again directly after locking.
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and
then flashes continuously. The tilt alarm
sensor and the interior motion sensor are
switched off until the vehicle is unlocked
and locked again.
Windows
To prevent injuries, exercise care
when closing the windows and keep
them in your field of vision until they are
shut.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the ignition key and close the doors to pre-
vent children from operating the windows
and injuring themselves etc.<

Anti-trapping mechanism
If the closing force rises beyond a pre-
defined threshold during closing, the sys-
tem will immediately stop moving the win-
dow prior to lowering it slightly.
Convertible: the back windows and
rear window are not equipped with an
anti-trapping mechanism.<
Despite the anti-trapping mechanism,
you should always inspect the front
side window's travel path prior to closing it,
as the safety feature might fail to detect
certain kinds of obstructions, such as very
thin objects, and the window would con-
tinue closing.
Pulling the switch beyond the resistance
point and holding it limits the response of
the anti-trapping mechanism. Under these
conditions, the window will respond to
forces beyond a defined threshold by only
opening a few inches/millimeters.
If you again pull the switch past the resis-
tance point and hold it in position within a
period of roughly 4 seconds, the anti-trap-
ping mechanism will be deactivated.<
Accessories in window area
After installing any accessory – such as a
clamp-on antenna for a portable phone –
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.
Coupe:
Glass roof, electric with
raise function*
To prevent injuries, exercise care
when closing the glass roof and keep
it in your field of vision until it is shut.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key and close the doors, as otherwise
children could operate the roof and injure
themselves etc.<
