Central lock ing system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for operation
whenever the driver's door is closed.
The system simultaneously engages and
releases the locks on the following:
>Doors
> MINI: tailgate
> MINI Clubman: Split Rear Barn Doors
> Fuel filler flap
Operating from outside
>Via the remote control
> Using the door lock
> In cars with Comfor t Access, via the door
handles on the driver's and passenger's
sides
The anti-theft system is also operated at the
same time. It prevents the doors from being
unlocked using the lock buttons or door han-
dles. The remote control can also be used to
switch the welcome lamps, the interior light, and
the ambient lighting on and off. The alarm sys-
tem is also activated or deactivated, page 32.
Operating from inside
Button for central locking system, page 30.
In the event of a sufficiently severe accident, the
central locking system unlocks automatically. In
addition, the hazard warning flashers and inte-
rior lamps come on.
Opening and closing:

> There is movement inside the car
> The car's inclination changes, for instance if
an attempt is made to ja ck it up and steal the
wheels or to raise it prior to towing it away
> There is an interruption in the power supply
from the battery The alarm system briefly indicates unauthorized
entry or tampering by means of:
>
An acoustic alarm

Display on the revolution counter
When the system is armed, all LEDs pulse. After
approx. 16 minutes one LED flashes.
>LEDs pulse or LED flashes: system is armed.
> One LED flashes at short intervals:
Doors, the hood or the tailgate are not prop-
erly closed. Even if these are not closed fully,
the remaining items are deadlocked and the
LEDs pulse after approx. 10 seconds for
approx. 16 minutes. Afterwards, one LED
flashes.
The interior movement detector is not acti-
vated.
> LEDs go out after the vehicle is unlocked:
No attempt was made to tamper with the
car.
> LEDs flash after unlocking until the key is
inserted in the ignition, but for no longer
than approx. 5 minutes: an attempt was
made to tamper with the vehicle.
Tilt alarm sensor
The vehicle's inclination is monitored. The alarm
is triggered, for instance, if an attempt is made
to steal the vehicle's wheels or tow it away.
Interior movement detector
Before the interior mo vement detector can
operate correctly, the windows and glass roof
must be closed.
Avoiding false alarms
The tilt alarm sensor an d the interior movement
detector can be swit ched off together. This prevents false alarms, e.g. in the following
situations:
>
In duplex garages
> When being transported on car-carrying
trains, ferries or trailers
> If pets are to remain inside the car
Switching off the tilt alarm sensor and
interior movement detector
Press the button on the remote control
twice in succession.
LEDs flash in short succession for approx.
2 seconds.
The tilt alarm sensor an d the interior movement
detector are switched of f until the car is next
unlocked and locked.
Comfort Access
The concept
Access to the vehicle is po ssible without the use
of the remote control. All you need to do is wear
the remote control close to your body, e.g. in
your jacket pocket. Th e vehicle automatically
detects the remote control within the immedi-
ate vicinity or in the passenger compartment.
Comfort Access supports the following func-
tions:
> Unlocking/locking the vehicle
> Unlocking the tailgate/Split Rear Barn Doors
separately
> Starting the engine
Functional requirements
>There are no external malfunction sources in
the vicinity.
> For locking, the remote control must be out-
side of the vehicle.
> The vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked
again until after approx. 2 seconds.
