Opening and closing
The key set
1Every master key with remote control con-
tains an extended-life battery as a power
supply, which is charged automatically in
the ignition lock as you drive. You should
use each master key at least twice a year in
order to maintain the charge condition.
Depending on which master key is detected
by the vehicle during unlocking, different
settings in the vehicle are requested and
executed, refer to Key Memory below.
2Spare key for storage in a safe place, such
as in your wallet.
This key does not fit in the locks of the lug-
gage compartment lid and the hotel func-
tion, refer to page32. This is an advantage
when valet parking at a hotel, for example.
The key is not intended for constant use.
New keys
New, additional or replacement keys are avail-
able at your BMW center.
Key Memory
How the system functions
Doubtless you have often reflected on how
great it would be if you could configure your
vehicle's various adjustment settings to meet
your own personal requirements. BMW has
designed several freely selectable options into
the vehicle during its development. You can set
these as desired via the Control Center.You can have up to four different basic settings
adjusted for four different persons for the spe-
cific keys. The only requirement is that each
person uses his or her own master key with
remote control.
When your vehicle is unlocked with the remote
control, the vehicle recognizes the individual
key by means of a data exchange and makes
adjustments accordingly.
Scope of Key Memory
>When unlocking with the remote control,
either unlock only the driver's door or the
entire vehicle, refer to page29.
>Locking the vehicle after a short time or
after starting to drive, refer to page31
>Assigning the programmable function but-
tons on the steering wheel, refer to page51.

Opening and closing
34 If special circumstances should make it abso-
lutely necessary to operate the vehicle with the
luggage compartment lid open:
1.Coupe: close both windows and the glass
sunroof
*.
Convertible: with closed top, close all win-
dows.
2.Increase the air volume of the automatic
climate control to a high level, refer to
page95.
Luggage compartment
There are four lashing eyes on the inner corners
of the luggage compartment for securing lug-
gage nets
* or securing straps to fix luggage in
position.
Also refer to Securing cargo, page111.
Convertible: increasing luggage
compartment capacity
With the convertible top closed, you can
enlarge the luggage compartment capacity:
To do so, unfold the handle and press it down-
ward in the direction of travel, refer to arrow.
This folds the convertible top compartment
floor upward.
Before opening the convertible top, execute
this procedure in reverse order.
The convertible top cannot be opened if
the convertible top compartment floor is
folded up.<
Alarm system
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds:
>To the opening of doors, the hood, or the
luggage compartment lid
>To movements in the vehicle interior: inte-
rior motion sensor, see below
>To changes in the vehicle's tilt if someone
attempts to steal the wheels or tow the
vehicle
>To interruptions in battery voltage
The system responds to unauthorized vehicle
entry and attempted theft by simultaneously
activating:
>An acoustic alarm, which lasts for a period
of approx. 30 seconds
>The hazard warning flashers for approx.
5minutes
>The high beams, which flash on and off in
the same rhythm
Arming and disarming alarm system
When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either with
the remote control or at the door lock, the alarm
system is armed or disarmed at the same time.
The system indicates that it has been correctly
armed by switching on the hazard warning
flashers for a single cycle and by emitting an
acoustic signal.
You can also open the luggage compartment lid
with the system armed using the button on
the remote control, refer to page30. When the
luggage compartment lid is closed, it is locked
again and monitored.
Switching off alarm
>Unlock the vehicle using the remote control,
refer to page29,
>or turn the ignition key to position 1, refer to
page54.

Opening and closing
40 dren away from the travel path of the convert-
ible top.
For safety reasons, only operate the convertible
top when the vehicle is at a standstill.<
If you have initiated top operation with the
vehicle at a stop and then start to drive,
e.g. at a traffic light, you can continue the ini-
tiated operation up to a speed of 20 mph/
30 km/h:
To do so, press and hold the corresponding
button.<
Partial vacuums that occur at higher
speeds in the passenger compartment
can make the convertible top flap. Use the auto-
matic climate control to increase the air supply
so that a partial vacuum in the vehicle does not
occur.<
Prior to opening and closing
>Read carefully and comply with the safety
precautions that appear above.
>Ensure that the convertible top compart-
ment floor in the luggage compartment is
folded down, refer to page34, as otherwise
the convertible top cannot be opened.
>Ensure that the luggage compartment lid is
closed.
Opening and closing
With the ignition key in position 1 or greater,
refer to page54, and the vehicle stationary:
So as not to place an excessive load on
the battery, only operate the convertible
top with the engine running, if possible.
Before closing the convertible top, remove for-
eign bodies from the windshield frame, as these
might inhibit closing of the convertible top.<1Closing
2LED
3Opening
When the button for top operation is
pressed, the side windows move down-
ward slightly; the rear window is lowered com-
pletely.
If you hold down the button after the LED2
goes out, the windows are raised again.
If the opening or closing action is not com-
pleted, the luggage compartment lid cannot be
opened.<
LED
In the following situations, in addition to the
LED, a message is displayed on the Control
Display and an acoustic signal may sound:
>During convertible top operation, the LED
lights up green. It goes out as soon as the
opening or closing action is ended.
> If the LED flashes red when you release the
button, the opening or closing action has
not yet finished.
>If the LED lights up red when the button is
pressed, either the floor of the convertible
top storage compartment in the luggage
compartment is in the raised position or a
malfunction has occurred. The convertible
top cannot be moved.
Interruption
The automatic sequence of movements is
interrupted immediately if the button for top
operation is released. The sequence can be
continued in the desired direction using the
button.
If the opening or closing action is interrupted for
a longer period, the convertible top remains in
that position for approx. 15 minutes before it
slowly moves to a stable position.
A convertible top which is not completely
opened or closed presents a danger.
Do not interrupt and continue the closing action
several times in succession, as otherwise the
top mechanism can be damaged.<
