Alarm system*
The concept The vehicle alarm system responds: > When a door, the hood or the luggage com-
partment lid is opened
> To movements inside the vehicle: Interior motion sensor, refer to the information fur- ther below
> When the car's inclination changes, for
instance if an attempt is made to jack it up and steal the wheels or to raise it prior to towing away
> When there is an interruption in the power
supply from the battery.
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, which operate
for approx. 5 minutes*
> The high beams, which flash on and off in
the same rhythm.
34
Arming and disarming 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. Even when the alarm system is armed, you can open the luggage compartment lid by means of the page 30. When you subsequently close the lug- gage compartment lid it is again locked and monitored.

Indicator lamp displays
> The indicator lamp under the inside rear- view mirror flashes continuously: the sys- tem is armed.
> The indicator lamp flashes after locking:
doors, hood or luggage compartment lid are not properly 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 sen- sor is not activated.
> The indicator lamp goes out after unlocking:
your vehicle has not been disturbed while you were away.
> If the indicator lamp flashes after unlocking
until the remote control is inserted in the ignition, but for no longer than approx. 5 minutes: your vehicle has been disturbed while you were away.
Tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor
Tilt alarm sensor The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The alarm system reacts, e.g. to attempts to steal a wheel or tow the vehicle.
Interior motion sensor In order for the interior motion sensor to func- tion properly, the windows and glass sunroof must be completely closed.
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 duplex garages > When transporting on car-carrying trains > When animals are to remain in the vehicle
button on the remote control
Switching off tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor Press the twice in a row. The indicator lamp comes on for approx. two seconds, then begins to flash steadily. The tilt alarm sensor and the interior motion sensor are switched off until the next time the vehicle is unlocked and subsequently 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 car, take the remote control out of the ignition lock and close the doors, oth-
erwise children could operate the power win- dows and possibly injure themselves.<
Opening, closing
> Press the switch to the resistance point.
The window continues to open as long as you keep the switch pressed.
> Briefly press the switch beyond the resis-
tance point. The window opens automatically. Briefly press the switch again to stop the opening movement.
You can close the windows in the same manner by pulling the switch. There are separate switches in the rear seat armrests.
After switching off the ignition You can still operate the windows: > In radio readiness, for approx. 15 minutes > For about one minute when the remote
control is removed or the ignition and radio readiness are switched off, as long as nei- ther front door has been opened
For information on convenient operation via the remote control or door lock, refer to page 30 or 31.
Take the remote control with you when you leave the car, otherwise children
could operate the electric windows and possi- bly injure themselves.<
Anti-trapping mechanism If the closing force of an electric window exceeds a specific value as it closes, the closing
35
action is interrupted immediately and the win- dow reopens slightly.
Despite the anti-trapping mechanism inspect the window's travel path prior to
closing it, as the safety system might fail to detect certain kinds of obstructions, such as 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. In this case, if the closing force exceeds a defined threshold, the window will only open a few fractions of an inch/a few millimeters. If the switch is pulled past the resistance point again within approx. 4 seconds, the anti-trap- ping mechanism will be deactivated.<
Safety switch
With the safety switch, you can prevent the rear windows from being opened or closed via the switches in the rear passenger area, by chil- dren, for example. When the safety function is switched on, the indicator lamp comes on.
Always press the safety switch when chil- dren ride in the rear, as otherwise
unchecked closing of the windows could lead to injuries.<
Accessories in a window area If you install accessories within the power win- dow movement range, e.g. a clip-on antenna for your portable phone, the system must be initial- ized to teach it the new conditions. BMW rec- ommends having this work done by your BMW center.

ing visor remains open and must be closed by hand. For information on convenient operation via the remote control or door lock, refer to page 30 or 31.
Anti-trapping mechanism If the glass sunroof encounters an obstruction during closing from approximately the middle of the opening in the roof, or during closing from the raised position, the closing movement is interrupted and the glass sunroof is opened again slightly.
Despite the anti-trapping mechanism check and clear the sunroof's travel path prior to closing it, as the safety system might fail to detect certain kinds of obstructions, such as very thin objects, and the sunroof would con- tinue closing. Pressing the switch beyond the resistance point and holding it there deactivates the anti- trapping mechanism.<
Following interruptions in electrical power supply After a power failure, there is a possibility that the glass sunroof can only be raised. The sys- tem must be initialized. BMW recommends having this work done by your BMW center.
Manually opening and closing In the event of an electrical malfunction, you can move the glass sunroof manually: 1. Unclip the front of the cover for the interior
lamps using the screwdriver from the onboard tool kit, refer to page 187.

Adjustments
Sitting safely The ideal sitting position can make a vital con- tribution to relaxed, fatigue-free driving. In con- junction with the safety belts, the head restraints and the airbags, the seated position has a major influence on your safety in the event of an accident. To ensure that the safety sys- tems operate with optimal efficiency, we strongly urge you to observe the instructions contained in the following section. For additional information on transporting chil- dren safely, refer to page 46.
Airbags
Always maintain an adequate distance between yourself and the airbags. Always
grip the steering wheel on the rim, with your hands in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions, to minimize the risk of injury to the hands or arms in the event of the airbag being triggered off. No one and nothing is to come between the air- bags and the seat occupant. Do not use the cover of the front airbag on the front passenger side as a storage area. Make sure that the front passenger is sitting correctly and does not rest feet or legs on the instrument panel, otherwise leg injuries can occur if the front airbag is triggered. Never let an occu- pant's head rest near or on a side airbag because the inflating airbag could cause a seri- ous or fatal injury.< Even if you adhere to all the instructions, inju- ries resulting from contact with airbags cannot be fully excluded, depending on the circum- stances. The ignition and inflation noise may provoke a mild hearing loss in extremely sensi- tive individuals. This effect is usually only tem- porary. For airbag locations and additional information on airbags, refer to page 82.
38
Head restraint A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the risk of neck injury in the event of an accident. Adjust the head restraint in such a way that its center is at approx. ear level. Oth-
erwise, there is a risk of injury should an acci- dent occur.<
Safety belt Before every drive, make sure that all occupants wear their safety belts. Airbags complement the safety belt as an additional safety device, but they do not represent a substitute.
At all times, occupants should sit upright and be properly restrained: infants and
small children in appropriate child-restraint sys- tems; larger children and adults using the safety belts. Never allow more than one person to wear a single safety belt. Never allow infants or small children to ride in a passenger's lap. Expectant mothers should also wear the safety belt, making sure that the strap in the pelvic area is well down on the hips and does not press against the abdominal region of the body. Do not route the belt across your neck, or run it across sharp edges. Be sure that the belt does not become caught or jammed. The safety belt should not be twisted and must be positioned firmly over the pelvis and shoulder, as close to the body as possible. It should not pass over hard or fragile objects, otherwise the belt in the pelvic area could slide over the hips in the event of a head-on collision and injure the lower abdo- men. Avoid wearing bulky clothing and regularly pull the belt in the upper-body area taut, other- wise its restraining effect could be impaired.< Safety belts, refer to page 43.
Seats
Backrest
Note before adjusting
Never attempt to adjust your seat while the vehicle is moving. The seat could
respond with unexpected movement, and the ensuing loss of vehicle control could lead to an accident. On the front passenger seat as well, do not incline the backrest too far to the rear while the vehicle is being driven, as otherwise there is a danger in the event of an accident of sliding under the safety belt, eliminating the protection normally provided by the belt.< Comply with the instructions on head restraint height on page 40, and on damaged safety belts on page 43.
