Glass sunroof, electric*
To prevent bodily injuries, watch the
glass sunroof as it closes.
Always take along the remote control when you
leave the vehicle; otherwise, children could, for
example, operate the roof and injure them-
selves.<
Raising
Press the switch.
The closed glass sunroof is raised and the slid-
ing visor opens slightly.
Do not use force to close the sliding visor
when the sunroof is in its raised position,
as this could damage the mechanism.<
Opening, closing
>Slide switch back to the resistance point.
The glass sunroof and the sliding visor con-
tinue to open together for as long as you
maintain pressure on the switch.
>Press the switch back briefly past the resis-
tance point.
The glass sunroof and the sliding visor open
automatically. Pressing the switch again
briefly stops the operation.Close the glass sunroof in the same way by slid-
ing the switch toward the front. The sliding visor
remains open and can be closed by hand.
For convenience operation using the remote
key or the door lock, refer to page32 or34.
Automatic opening and closing
Press the switch briefly beyond the resistance
point.
The following movements are also automated:
>Press the switch when the roof is open: the
sunroof is completely raised.
>With the sunroof raised, press the switch
briefly in the opening direction: the sunroof
is opened completely.
Pressing the switch again briefly stops the
operation.
Pinch protection system
If the glass sunroof meets with resistance dur-
ing closing after approximately the middle of the
roof opening or when closing from the raised
position, then the closing operation is inter-
rupted and the glass sunroof opens again
somewhat.
Despite the presence of the pinch protec-
tion system, inspect the sunroof's travel
path prior to closing it, as the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-
tions, such as very thin objects, and the sunroof
would continue closing.<
Closing without the pinch protection
system
If there is danger outside, push the switch
beyond the resistance point and hold it there.
The roof closes without the pinch protection
system.
Following interruptions in electrical
power supply
After a power supply interruption, it may only
be possible to raise the sunroof. If this has
occurred, have the system reinitialized. BMW
recommends having this work carried out by
your BMW center.

A congenial climate
For almost all conditions, the AUTO program1
offers the optimal air distribution and air vol-
ume. Select an interior temperature that you
find pleasant.
The following section contains more detailed
information on the available setting options.
The settings are stored for the remote key cur-
rently in use.
AUTO program
The AUTO program handles the
adjustment of air distribution to the
windshield and side windows, in
the direction of the upper body, and in the foot-
well, as well as the adjustment of the air volume. It also adapts your instructions for the tempera-
ture to outside influences throughout the year.
The cooling is switched on automatically with
the AUTO program. At the same time, a con-
densation sensor controls the program so as to
prevent window condensation as much as pos-
sible.
Intensity of AUTO program
You can adjust the intensity of the AUTO pro-
gram by repeatedly pressing the AUTO button.
Press the button to have the current setting

storage compartment and the luggage com-
partment.<

as required.<
The temperature in the storage compartment
depends on the setting for the upper body area,
refer to page105.

The concept
Your BMW is equipped with a mobile phone
preparation package. After a suitable mobile
phone has been paired with the vehicle once,
you can operate the mobile phone via iDrive, via
the button on the steering wheel, via the phone
keypad and by voice
*.
A mobile phone that has been paired with the
vehicle once is automatically detected again
with the engine running or the ignition switched
on as soon as it is brought inside the vehicle.
The logon data of up to four mobile phones can
be stored simultaneously. If several mobile
phones are detected simultaneously, then the
vehicle can be used to operate the mobile
phone that was most recently paired with it.
Using a phone in your vehicle
Using snap-in adapter*
The so-called snap-in adapter, a cradle for your
mobile phone, is inserted into the center arm-
rest. If the mobile phone is inserted into the
snap-in adapter, the battery is charged and the
mobile phone is connected to the external
antenna of the vehicle whenever the ignition
key is in the radio ready state or higher. This
assures better network reception and uniform
sound quality. Ask your BMW center which
mobile phones snap-in adapters are offered for.
To use the snap-in adapter, refer to page181.
BMW discourages the use of mobile
phones or other mobile communications
devices inside the vehicle without a direct con-
nection to an outside antenna. Otherwise, the
vehicle electronics and mobile communications
device can interfere with each other. In addition,
there is no assurance that the radiation gener-
ated during transmission will be discharged
from the vehicle interior. the vehicle with the keypad of the mobile
phone; otherwise, malfunctions can occur.
The mobile phone can be operated by means
of:
>the button on the steering wheel, refer to
page11
>the retracting telephone keypad, refer to
page179
>iDrive, refer to Initiating communication,
page184
>the voice command system
*, refer to
page23
For information on operating your mobile
phone, please consult the separate operating
instructions.
For your safety
Only make entries when the traffic situa-
tion allows you to do so. Do not hold the
mobile phone in your hand while you are driving;
use the hands-free system instead. If you do
not comply with this precaution, your being dis-
tracted can endanger vehicle occupants and
other road users.<
Suitable mobile phones
Ask your BMW center which mobile phones
with a Bluetooth interface are supported by the
mobile phone preparation package or which
mobile phones snap-in adapters are available
for. These mobile phones support the functions
described in this Owner's Manual with a certain
software version. Malfunctions can occur with
other mobile phones.
