Opening and closing Ð via the remote controlThe conceptThe remote control makes opening and
locking the doors of your vehicle very
convenient. Furthermore it provides
three additional functions that can only
be executed via the remote control:
>Switch on the interior lamps, refer to
page 32.
With this function, you can also
search for your vehicle Ñ when
parked in an underground garage, for
instance
>Open the liftgate, refer to page 32.
The liftgate will open slightly, regard-
less of whether it was previously
locked or unlocked
>Panic mode, refer to page 32.
In case of danger, you can trigger an
alarm.
Whenever you unlock or lock the
vehicle, you simultaneously deactivate/
activate the anti-theft system, disarm/
arm the alarm system and switch the
interior lamps on/off.
You can have an acknowledgment
signal set to confirm that the
vehicle is correctly locked.<
Since passengers or animals
remaining in the vehicle might be
able to lock the doors from the inside,
take the vehicle's keys with you so that
the vehicle can be opened again from
the outside at any time.<
If it is no longer possible to lock
the vehicle via the remote control,
the battery is discharged. Use this key
while driving for an extended period in
order to charge the battery. To prevent
unauthorized use of the remote control,
surrender only the door and ignition key
or the spare key when leaving the
vehicle for valet parking, for example,
refer to page 30.
In the event of a system malfunction,
please contact your BMW Sports
Activity Vehicle center. You can also
obtain replacement keys there.<

Lamps and bulbsThe lamps and bulbs make essential
contributions to the safety of your
vehicle. For this reason, follow the
instructions below carefully when
replacing a bulb. If you are not familiar
with any of the procedures, consult
your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle
center.
Do not touch the glass portion of a
new bulb with your bare hands
since even small amounts of impurities
burn into the surface and reduce the
service life of the bulb. Use a clean
cloth, paper napkin, or a similar mate-
rial, or hold the bulb by its metallic
base.<
A replacement bulb set is available from
your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle
center.
Whenever working on the elec-
trical system, switch off the elec-
trical accessory you are working on or
disconnect the cable from the negative
terminal of the battery. Failure to do this
could result in short circuits.
Comply with any instructions provided
by the bulb manufacturer. If you do not,
injuries and damages during the bulb
replacement can occur.<
