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 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 have different acknowledg-ment signals set to confirm arming and disarming.< Even with the alarm system armed, you can open the luggage compartment lid using button 3on the remote control unit, refer to page 34. The alarm system will start to monitor the luggage compartment lid again as soon as it is reclosed. 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 completely closed. Even if you do not close the alerted area, the system begins to monitor the remaining areas, and the indi-cator 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 >The indicator lamp flashes for approx. 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: Lock the vehicle, i.e., arm the alarm system twice in a row by pressing button 2on the remote control unit twice in succession, refer to page 34, or lock the vehicle twice using the key, refer to page 35. ba.book Seite 39 Dienstag, 29.

If you desire, the >tilt alarm sensor >interior motion sensor can be switched off permanently. Please contact your BMW center for assistance.< Interior motion sensor In order for the interior motion sensor to function properly, the windows and sliding/tilt sunroof must be completely closed.

When leaving the vehicle parked, always remove the remote control from the ignition lock and close the doors; this precaution prevents children from operating the power windows and injuring themselves, etc.< For information on using the convenience operation mode at the door lock or with the remote control unit, refer to page 35 or 34. Safety featureIf the force rises beyond a predefined threshold during closing, the system will immediately stop moving the window prior to lowering it slightly. Despite this safety feature you should always inspect the window's travel path prior to closing it, as the safety system might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-tions, such as very thin objects, and the window would continue closing. Pulling the switch beyond the pressure point and holding it limits the response of the safety feature. Under these conditions the window will respond to forces beyond a defined threshold by only opening several millimeters. If you again pull the switch past the pres-sure point and hold it in position within a period of roughly 4 seconds, the safety feature will be deactivated.< If you desire, you can have your BMW center reprogram the safety feature for deactivation the first time you pull and hold the switch. Please contact your BMW center for assistance.< When you close the windows they will slow down as they approach the end of their travel; this is to allow the safety ba.book Seite 40 Dienstag, 29.
