Opening and closing with the remote control
The principle
The remote control is an extremely con-
venient way to lock and unlock your
car. There are also two additional func-
tions:
>
Switch on interior light, see page 32
This function can help you locate
your car if you have parked in a large
underground garage, for example
>
Open luggage compartment lid, see
page 32
Opens slightly regardless of whether
the lid was previously locked or
unlocked.
When the car is locked/unlocked, the
anti-theft system is activated/deacti-
vated at the same time, the alarm sys-
tem switched on/off, and the interior
light switched on or off, accordingly.
You can arrange for a signal to be
provided as confirmation that the
car has been locked correctly.
<
Master key with remote control
The doors can be locked from the
inside by persons or animals in the
passenger compartment. Always take
the car keys with you so that the car
can be opened from the outside.
<
If the remote control is unable to
lock the car, this means that the
battery in the key is discharged. You
should use the master key in question
to drive the car on a lengthy trip in order
to recharge its battery.
Prevent unauthorised use of the remote
control, for example by handing over
only the door and ignition key or the
spare key to hotel staff, for example.
In the event of faults, contact BMW
Service, which can also supply replace-
ment keys.
