Alarm system
*
The conceptThe vehicle's alarm system responds:
>When a door, the hood or the lug-
gage compartment lid is opened
>To motion within the passenger com-
partment (interior motion sensor)
>To a change in the inclination of the
vehicle, e. g. during an attempted
wheel theft of unauthorized towing
>To interruption of battery voltage.
The alarm system signals unauthorized
access to the vehicle or an attempted
theft in different ways:
>Sounding an acoustical alarm for
30 seconds
>Activating the hazard warning flash-
ers for approx. five minutes
*.
To activate and deactivate the
alarm systemWhen the vehicle is locked or unlocked
by using a key or with the remote con-
trol, the alarm system is also simulta-
neously armed or disarmed.
The interior motion sensor is activated
approx. 30 seconds after you have fin-
ished locking the car.
If the alarm system has been armed
correctly, the hazard warning flashers
cycle once. An acoustic warning signal
sounds at the same time.
You can have various confirmation
messages set to inform you that
the alarm system has been armed or
disarmed.<
You can also open the luggage com-
partment lid when the system is armed
by pressing button 3 of the remote con-
trol (refer to page 37). When it is closed,
the lid is once again secured.
Indicator lamp displaysThe indicator lamp is located under the
inside rearview mirror.
>When the indicator lamp flashes
continuously: The system is armed
>The indicator lamp flashes when it is
armed: The door(s), the hood or lug-
gage compartment lid are not com-
pletely closed. Even if you do not
close the alerted area, the system be-
gins to monitor the remaining areas,
and the indicator lamp flashes contin-
uously after 10 seconds. However,
the interior motion sensor is not
activated
>If the indicator lamp goes out when
the system is disarmed: No manipula-
tion or attempted intrusions have
been detected in the period since the
system was armed460de105

Automatic transmission with Steptronic
*
The Steptronic will "think" for you in the
following situations:
>In order to keep the engine from
overrevving, it will automatically shift
into the next higher gear shortly be-
fore the governed speed.
>If you do not do anything to interfere,
it will automatically downshift at
lower speeds.
>In kickdown, it will downshift into the
lowest gear possible, depending on
the engine speed.

Electronic transmission control
module
If the indicator lamp comes on,
there is a malfunction in the
transmission system.
Bring the vehicle to a stop, select trans-
mission position "P", set the parking
brake and turn the engine off (ignition
key to position 0).
Wait a few seconds, then start the engine.
If the indicator lamp goes out after a few
seconds, normal transmission perfor-
mance has been restored. Drive off
normally.
If the indicator lamp does not go out, all
selector lever positions can still be se-
lected; however in the forward positions
the vehicle has limited performance as
it drives only in 3
rd and 4
th gear.
If this happens, avoid extreme engine
loads and consult the nearest authorized
BMW center.
Do not carry out any work on the
car in the engine compartment
without first making sure that the selector
lever is in position P or N, and that
the parking brake has been set.<
For towing, tow-starting or jump-start-
ing the vehicle, refer to the information
beginning on page 156.

1 Odometer You can activate the displays shown in
the illustration with the ignition key in
position 0 by pressing the button in the
instrument cluster (arrow).2 Trip odometerTo reset the trip odometer to zero,
press the button (arrow) with the igni-
tion key in position 1 or 2.462us005
Avoid engine speeds in the red warning
zone of the gauge.
To protect the engine, the engine man-
agement system automatically inter-
rupts the fuel supply in this range; the
resulting effect resembles that associ-
ated with a sudden loss of power.462us017
Indicates the current fuel consumption in
mpg (on Canadian models in l/100 km).
This instrument clearly shows whether
your current driving style is conducive to
economy and minimum exhaust emis-
sions.
The needle goes back to zero when the
car is stationary. 462us018

Service Interval Display Remaining distance for serviceThe displays shown in the diagram
appear for a few seconds with the
ignition key in position 1 and 2 or for
a few seconds after starting the engine.
The next service due appears with the
message OILSERVICE or INSPECTION,
together with the remaining distance
before scheduled service.
The computer bases its calculations of
the remaining distance on the rate of
fuel consumption in the period immedi-
ately preceding your data request.
A flashing message and a "–" in front of
the number mean that the service inter-
val has already been exceeded by the
distance shown on the display. Please
contact your authorized BMW center for
an appointment.462us022

Graphic display
The following information and/or condi-
tions are indicated using symbols, start-
ing with the ignition key position 2, until
the interference has been fixed:
1 Inspect the low-beam and high-beam
headlamps, as well as the side
marker lamps
2 Door open
3 Luggage compartment lid open
4 Check brake and taillamps.
After the completion of a trip and when
the driver's door is opened, an acousti-
cal signal is given for "Lamps on" if the
lamps have not been switched off.462de272
Mode selectionIn ignition key positions 1 and 2, you
can call up information from the on-
board computer using the button in the
turn signal lever. By pressing the button
briefly in the direction of the steering
column, you can call up a new function
for display.
The displays appear in the following
order:
Time, outside temperature, average fuel
consumption, cruising range, average
vehicle speed.
The function that was last selected will
be indicated when the ignition is
switched on.462de222
Set the clockIn ignition key position 1 and 2
To set ahead: Turn the button to the
right.
To set back: Turn the button to the left.
The adjustment speed will increase the
longer you continue to hold the button.
To change the display mode: Press the
knob briefly.
Every time you press the knob, the
clock display alternates between the
12-hour or 24-hour mode.

Onboard computerOutside temperature You can change the units of measure
(6/7) for the outside temperature dis-
play by pressing the right-hand reset
button in the instrument cluster when
the temperature display is active.462us023
Ice warning If the outside temperature sinks to
approx. 37.57 (+ 36), a warning sig-
nal sounds and the display flashes
briefly.
The warning is repeated whenever the
temperature goes to at least 437
(+ 66) and then drops again to 37.57
(+ 36).
The ice warning does not alter the
fact that surface ice can form at
temperatures above 37.57 (+ 36),
e. g. on bridges or shaded road sur-
faces.<
Average fuel consumption If you continue to hold the button on the
turn signal lever, the average fuel con-
sumption last displayed is recalculated
from that point in time.462us007
