Liftgate TailgateTo close You can pull the liftgate down by
placing both hands in the handle
recesses (arrows).
To avoid injuries, be sure that the
travel path of the liftgate is clear
when it is closed, as with all closing
procedures.< 530us017
Operate the vehicle only when
both gates are completely closed.
Otherwise, exhaust fumes could pene-
trate the interior of the vehicle. Should it
be absolutely necessary to operate the
vehicle with an open gate:
>Close all windows. Shut the sliding/
tilt sunroof
>Increase the air supply for the air
conditioner or automatic climate
control to a high level, refer to

accept loads of up to 440 lbs
(200 kg). When the vehicle is parked,
you may utilize the tailgate as a seat or
as a loading platform for luggage or
recreation gear, for example.< 530de246

Alarm system Electric power windows >If the indicator lamp flashes for
10 seconds when the system is
disarmed: an attempted entry has
been detected in the period since the
system was armed.
Following triggering of an alarm, the
indicator lamp will flash continuously. Avoiding unintentional alarmsThe tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor may be switched off at the same
time. 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:
Actuate (= arm the system) the lock
twice; in other words, press button 2 of
the remote control twice in succession,
refer to page 33. You may also actuate
the locks twice with the key, refer to
page 31.
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and
then flashes continuously. The tilt alarm
sensor and the interior motion sensor
are deactivated as long as the system is
armed.
Interior motion sensor In order for the interior motion sensor to
function properly, the windows and
sliding/tilt sunroof must be completely
closed.
However, be sure to switch off the inte-
rior motion sensor (see the previous
column) when you
>leave children or animals in the
vehicle
>intend to leave the windows or
sliding/tilt sunroof open.
Open and close windowsFrom ignition key position 1:
>Press the switch up to the pressure
point:
The window continues to move as
long as you continue to hold the
switch
>Press the switch beyond the pressure
point:
The window moves downward auto-
matically. Touch the switch again to
stop the opening movement.
You can close the windows in the same
manner by pulling the switch.530us020

Sliding/tilt sunroof with glass moonroof
*
To prevent injuries, exercise care
when closing the sliding/tilt
sunroof and keep it in your field of
vision until it is shut.
Before leaving the vehicle, switch off
the electric sunroof mechanism by
removing the ignition key. Do not leave
children unattended in the vehicle with
access to vehicle keys. Use of the key
can result in starting of the engine and
operation of vehicle systems such as
the power sunroof, etc. Unsupervised
use of these systems can result in
serious personal injury.<
For the convenience mode via the door
lock or the remote control, refer to
page 31 or 33.
Lifting Ð Opening Ð Closing With the ignition key in position 1 or
higher, press the switch or slide it in the
desired direction until you feel resis-
tance.
The headliner slides back somewhat
when you raise the sunroof. When the
sunroof is opened the headliner retracts
with it. It remains open, and it is possible
to slide it back and forth as long as the
sunroof is not completely open.
The headliner insert cannot be
closed with the sliding/tilt sunroof
in its raised position.<
After the ignition has been switched off,
you can still operate the sliding/tilt
sunroof as long as neither of the front
doors has been opened. 530de247
Automatic

Press the switch briefly past the pres-
sure point and then release it.

switch briefly toward "Lift": the
sunroof automatically extends to its
fully raised position.

slightly.

Sliding/tilt sunroof with glass moonroof
*
Despite this safety feature, be
extremely careful that the closing
path of the sunroof is not obstructed
whenever it is closed. Otherwise, trig-
gering the closing-force limitation may
not be ensured in some situations (with
very thin objects, for instance). You can
disable this safety feature by pressing
the switch beyond the pressure point
and holding it.<
Power lossAfter interruptions in the electrical
supply (when the battery is discon-
nected, for instance), the sunroof may
only lift. To reinitialize the mechanism:
1. Raise the sliding/tilt sunroof fully
2. Press and hold the switch for approx.
twenty seconds. 530de248
Manual operationIn the event of an electrical malfunction,
you can operate the sliding/tilt sunroof
manually:
1. Open the glasses compartment, refer
to page 118
2. Insert the Allen wrench from the
vehicle tool kit (refer to page 152) in
the opening provided and turn the
sliding/tilt sunroof in the desired
direction. 530us124

Roof-mounted luggage rack
*
A special rack system is available as an
option for your BMW. Please comply
with the precautions included with the
installation instructions.Mounting pointsAccess to the mounting points:
To fold up the cover (arrow), please use
the tool which is provided with the rack
system.530de293
Cargo loading and driving hintsRoof-mounted luggage racks raise the
center of gravity of the vehicle when
they are loaded. For this reason, they
exercise a major effect on the vehicle's
handling and steering response.
You should therefore always remember
not to exceed the approved roof
weight, the approved gross vehicle
weight or the axle loads when loading
the rack.
You will find the specifications under
"Technical Data" on page 172.
Make sure that the load is not too
heavy, and attempt to distribute it
evenly. Always load the heaviest pieces
first (on the bottom). Be sure that
adequate clearance is maintained for
raising the sliding/tilt sunroof, and that
objects do not project into the opening
path of the liftgate. Always ensure that roof-mounted
loads are tightly secured, as loose
loads can shift or even fly off the roof,
posing a serious hazard for following
traffic.<
Drive smoothly. Avoid sudden accelera-
tion and braking maneuvers. Take
corners gently.
