Indicator lamp displays>The indicator lamp below the interior
rearview mirror flashes continuously:
The system is armed
>The indicator lamp flashes immedi-
ately after the vehicle is locked: doors
or luggage compartment lid are not
completely closed. Even if you do not
close the alerted area(s), the remain-
ing areas are secured, and the indi-
cator lamp will flash continuously
after 10 seconds. However, the inte-
rior motion sensor is not activated
>The indicator lamp goes out immedi-
ately after the vehicle is unlocked: no
manipulation or attempted intrusions
have been detected in the period
since the system was armed
>The indicator lamp flashes for
10 seconds immediately after the
vehicle is unlocked: 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.Tilt alarm sensor and interior
motion sensorTilt alarm sensor:
The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The
alarm system reacts, for example, to
attempts to steal the wheels or tow the
vehicle.
Interior motion sensor:
The vehicle interior is monitored up to
the height of the seat cushions. Even
when the convertible top is open, the
alarm system including the interior
motion sensor is armed. Objects falling
into the vehicle, e.g. leaves, can trigger
unintentional alarms, refer to Avoiding
unintentional alarms.Avoiding unintentional alarmsThe tilt alarm sensor and interior motion
sensor may be switched off at the same
time. You can do this to prevent a false
alarm, e.g. in the following situations:
>In garages with elevator ramps>When the vehicle is being trans-
ported by train
>When animals are to remain in the
vehicle.
To deactivate the tilt alarm and
interior motion sensors>Press the button on the remote con-
trol twice.
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and
then flashes continuously. The tilt alarm
sensor and the interior motion sensor
are deactivated until the vehicle is
unlocked and locked again.
You can have the tilt alarm sensor
and the interior motion sensor
permanently deactivated.<
The system inadvertently deacti-
vates the tilt alarm sensor and the
interior motion sensor if the conve-
nience closing of windows and glass
sunroof is interrupted within the first
10 seconds and then restarted. The
vehicle must then be unlocked and
relocked before the sensors will resume
operation.<

Vehicle Memory, Key MemoryHow the system functionsNo doubt you have reflected at one
time or another on how great it would
be if you could permanently configure
your vehicle's various features and
adjustments to mirror your own individ-
ual preferences. In engineering your
vehicle, BMW has provided for a num-
ber of options for personal adjustment
that can be programmed into your vehi-
cle at your BMW center.
The available configuration data fall into
two categories, according to whether
their primary orientation is the vehicle –
Vehicle Memory – or the individual –
Key Memory. Provided that each per-
son has a separate remote-control key,
you can have your BMW center enter
basic adjustment data for up to four
individuals in the system.
The system then relies on a bilateral
data exchange to identify the individual
user and executes the selected settings
whenever the remote control unit is
used to disengage the door locks.
Distinguishing between keysColor-coded decals have been pro-
vided to help you distinguish individual
keys with different settings.What the system can doYour BMW center can provide you with
details on the capabilities of the Vehicle
Memory and Key Memory systems.
You will see this symbol through-
out the Owner's Manual. It is to
remind you at appropriate places of the
settings that are available to you.<
Examples for Vehicle Memory:
>Various signals as acknowledgment
when locking or unlocking your vehi-
cle, refer to pages 29, 31
>Activates/deactivates the 'Follow me
home' function, refer to page 95
>Activates/deactivates daytime driv-
ing lamps, refer to page 95
>Sets the units of measure for display-
ing time, outside temperature, dis-
tance traveled and fuel consumption
in the instrument cluster
>When you shift into Reverse, an
acoustic signal indicates that PDC
has been activated, refer to page 90
>Switches on rear window defroster
automatically, refer to
pages 102, 107
>Activates/deactivates various alarm
system functions, refer to page 37
>After giving an ice warning, the
onboard computer display returns to
the previous setting, refer to page 88.
Examples for Key Memory:
>Unlocks driver's door first, then the
vehicle's remaining locks, refer to
page 31
>Locks the vehicle automatically after
you start off, refer to page 32
>Automatically adjusts the driver's
seat to the personal programmed
settings when the vehicle is
unlocked, refer to page 55
>Automatic tilting of the passenger-
side mirror, refer to Automatic curb
monitor, page 56.

Tips for pleasant drivingUse the automatic mode – switch on
with AUTO button 6. Select the desired
interior temperature.
Detailed setting options are described
for you in the following section.
You can make the settings of your
vehicle in such a manner that,
when you unlock the vehicle with the
remote control of your personal key,
your own personalized setting for the
automatic climate control is initiated.
air supply and the air distribu-
tion to the windshield and the side win-
dows, towards the upper body and to
the footwells, and in addition adapts
the temperature to external influences:
e.g. summer, winter.
The cooling function is automatically
switched on when you are using the
AUTO program.
Individual air distribution
You can cancel the AUTO pro-
gram by selecting specific dis-
tribution patterns to suit your
own individual requirements.
While the AUTO program is then deacti-
vated, the automatic airflow control
remains in operation. Air flows onto
the windows , toward the upper
body , and into the footwell . You
can reactivate the automatic air distri-
bution mode by selecting the AUTO
button.Temperature
The interior temperature that
appears in the display panel is a
general figure intended for refer-
ence purposes. We recommend 727/
+226 as a comfortable setting, even if
the air conditioning is on. When you
start the vehicle, the system ensures
that the selected temperature is
achieved as quickly as possible. It then
maintains this temperature, regardless
of the season.
To select the units of measure 7/6 of
the display, refer to page 88.
Air supply/Blower
By pressing the upper or lower
button, you can vary the air sup-
ply. This deactivates the auto-
matic control of the air supply, AUTO
disappears from the display panel. Nev-
ertheless, the automatic air distribution
remains unchanged. You can reactivate
the automatic air distribution mode by
selecting the AUTO button.
When the lowest blower speed is set
and you press the lower button, all of
the displays are canceled: the blower,
heating and air conditioning are
switched off. The outside air supply is
blocked. You can reactivate the system
by pressing any button for the auto-
matic climate control.To defrost windows and remove
condensation
This program quickly removes
ice and condensation from the
windshield and the side windows.
Air conditioning
The air is cooled and dehumidi-
fied and – depending on the
temperature setting – rewarmed.
Depending on the weather, the wind-
shield may fog over briefly when the
engine is started. Air conditioning helps
prevent the windows from fogging up.
The cooling function is automatically
switched on when you are using the
AUTO program.

3. Hold the original control device
approx. 2 to 8 in / 5 to 20 cm away
from memory buttons 1.
The required distance between
the control device and the mem-
ory buttons 1 may vary, depending on
the system of the original control device
in question.<
4. Simultaneously press the command
button of the original control device
and the desired memory button 1 on
the integrated universal remote con-
trol. Indicator lamp 2 starts to flash
slowly. When indicator lamp 2
flashes rapidly, release both but-
tons. If the indicator lamp 2 does not
flash rapidly after approx.
15 seconds, select a different dis-
tance between the two devices
5. To program other original control
devices, repeat steps 3 and 4.
The corresponding memory button 1 is
now programmed with the signal of the
original control device.
The system can be operated from igni-
tion key position 2.
If the system cannot be operated
after repeated attempts at pro-
gramming, check whether the original
control device is equipped with an
alternating-code system. You can either
check the operating instructions of the
original control device for this informa-
tion, or you can press and hold down
the programmed memory button 1 of
the integrated universal remote control.
If indicator lamp 2 of the integrated uni-
versal remote control flashes rapidly for
a brief period and then remains on for
approx. 2 seconds, the original control
device is equipped with an alternating-
code system. In this case, you have to
program the memory buttons 1 as
described below for an alternating-
code control device.<
Programming an alternating-code
control deviceYou will need to follow the operating
instructions of the system in question in
order to program the integrated univer-
sal remote control. Read through the
operating instructions for information
on synchronization. Comply with the
following additional instructions when
you program an alternating-code con-
trol device:
You will find programming easier if
you have the assistance of
another person.<
1. Park the vehicle within range of the
radio remote controlled device
2. Program the integrated universal
remote control as described above in
the section on fixed-code program-
ming
3. Locate the button on the receiver of
the target device, for example on the
drive
4. Press the button on the receiver of
the target device. Once you have
completed step 4, you have approx.
30 seconds to complete step 5
5. Press the programmed memory
button 1 of the integrated universal
remote control three times.
The corresponding memory button 1 is
now programmed with the signal of the
original control device.
