Indicator lamp displays
>The indicator lamp below the interior rear-
view mirror flashes continuously: the sys-
tem is armed.
>The indicator lamp flashes after locking:
door(s) or luggage compartment lid are not
completely closed. Even if you do not close
the alerted area, the system begins to mon-
itor the remaining areas, and the indicator
lamp flashes continuously after approx.
10 seconds. However, the interior motion
sensor is not activated.
>The indicator lamp goes out after unlocking:
no manipulation or attempted intrusions
have been detected in the period since the
system was armed.
>After unlocking, the indicator lamp flashes
until the key is inserted into the ignition
lock, but will not do so for longer than
roughly 5 minutes: an attempted entry has
been detected in the period since the sys-
tem was armed.
Tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor
Tilt alarm sensor
Monitors the inclination of the vehicle. The
alarm system reacts, for example, if someone
attempts to steal the wheels or tow the vehicle.
Interior motion sensor
Coupe:
In order for the interior motion sensor to func-
tion properly, the windows and glass sunroof
*
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 sensor, is armed
even if the convertible top is open. Falling
objects, e.g. leaves, can trigger false alarms,
refer to Avoiding unintentional alarms.
Avoiding unintentional alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor
may be switched off at the same time. This pre-
vents unintentional alarms, e.g. in the following
situations:
>In stacking garages
>When transporting on car-carrying trains
>When animals are to remain in the vehicle
Switching off the tilt alarm sensor and
interior motion sensor
Press the button on the remote control
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 prevent chil-
dren from operating the power windows and

Rear window
Ignition key in position 1 or greater, refer to
page54:
1.Briefly press button1:
The LEDs in button 1 and switch 2 light up.
2.Press switch 2:
>Up to the resistance point:
The rear window continues to open for
as long as you hold the switch.
You can close the rear window in the
same manner by pulling the switch.
>Briefly press the switch beyond the
resistance point:
The rear window opens automatically.
Briefly press the switch again to stop the
opening movement.
Briefly press button 1 again to deactivate the
function. The LEDs go out.
The rear window opens and closes auto-
matically when you open or close the con-
vertible top.<
After switching off ignition
You can still operate the windows:
>for approx. 15 minutes when the ignition
key is in position 1.
>for approx. 1 minute when the ignition key is
in position 0 or has been removed; but in the
convertible, only for as long as a door has
not been opened.
For information on using the convenience oper-
ation mode at the door lock or with the remote
control, refer to page30 or31.
Anti-trapping mechanism
If the closing force rises beyond a predefined
threshold during closing, the system will imme-
diately stop moving the window prior to lower-
ing it slightly.
Convertible: the back windows and rear
window are not equipped with an anti-
trapping mechanism.<
Despite the anti-trapping mechanism,
you should inspect the travel path of the
front side window prior to closing it, as the
safety feature could fail to detect certain kinds
of obstructions, such as very thin objects, and
the window would continue 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 pull the switch past the resistance point
again within approx. 4 seconds and hold it there,
the anti-trapping mechanism will be deacti-
vated.<
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 contact your BMW center for
assistance.
Coupe:
Glass sunroof, electric
with raise function*
To prevent injuries, exercise care when
closing the glass sunroof 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 sunroof and injure them-
selves.<

The fully automatic convertible top combines

venient operation.
So that you get the maximum pleasure from
your convertible, here are a few tips:
>It is advisable to close the convertible top
when the vehicle is parked. The closed con-
vertible top not only protects the passenger
compartment against unforeseen weather
damage, it also provides a certain amount of
protection against theft. Nonetheless, even
if the convertible top is closed, only keep
valuables in the locked luggage compart-
ment.
>Do not attach luggage rack systems to the
convertible top.
In order to avoid damage, do not operate
the convertible top at temperatures
below + 147/–106.
Do not leave the convertible top in its storage
compartment for longer than one day when wet,
as otherwise damage from moisture can occur.
Do not place any objects on the convertible top,
as otherwise if the top were to be operated,
these objects could fall off and lead to damage
or injury.
Never move the convertible top when the roll-
over protection system is raised.
Driving without having completed the opening
or closing action can lead to damage or injury.

structed. If you fail to do so, any persons or
objects behind the seat could be injured or
damaged by a rearward movement of the
seat.<

age to the safety belt on page49.
