When the system is armed, all LEDs pulse. After
approx. 16 minutes one LED flashes.
>LEDs pulse or LED flashes: system is armed.
> One LED flashes at short intervals:
Doors, the hood or the tailgate are not
properly closed. Even if these are not closed
fully, the remaining items are deadlocked
and the LEDs pulse after approx. 10 seconds
for approx. 16 minutes. Afterwards, one LED
flashes.
The interior movement detector is not acti-
vated.
> LEDs go out after the vehicle is unlocked:
No attempt was made to tamper with the
car.
> LEDs flash after unlocking until the key is
inserted in the ignition, but for no longer
than approx. 5 minutes: an attempt was
made to tamper with the vehicle.
Tilt alarm sensor
The vehicle's inclination is monitored. The alarm
is triggered, for instance, if an attempt is made
to steal the vehicle's wheels or tow it away.
Interior movement detector
Before the interior movement detector can
operate correctly, the windows and glass roof
must be closed.
Avoiding false alarms
The tilt alarm sensor and the interior movement
detector can be switched off together. This prevents false alarms, e.g. in the following
situations:
>
In duplex garages
> When being transported on car-carrying
trains, ferries or trailers
> If pets are to remain inside the car
Switching off the tilt alarm sensor and
interior movement detector
>Press the button on the remote
control twice in succession.
> Lock the vehicle twice with the integrated
key.
LEDs flash in short succession for approx.
2seconds.
The tilt alarm sensor and the interior movement
detector are switched off until the car is next
unlocked and locked.
Comfort Access
The concept
Access to the vehicle is possible without the use
of the remote control. All you need to do is wear
the remote control close to your body, e.g. in
your jacket pocket. The vehicle automatically
detects the remote control within the immedi-
ate vicinity or in the passenger compartment.
Comfort Access support s the following func-
tions:
> Unlocking/locking the vehicle
> Unlocking the tailgate/S plit Rear Barn Doors
separately
> Starting the engine
Functional requirements
>There are no external malfunction sources in
the vicinity.
> For locking, the remote control must be out-
side of the vehicle.
> The vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked
again until after approx. 2 seconds.

Vehicle equipment
In this chapter, all production, country, and
optional equipment that is offered in the model
range is described. Equipment is also described
that is not available because of, for example,
selected options or count ry version. This also
applies to safety related functions and systems.
Integrated universal
remote control
The concept
By using the integrated universal remote con-
trol, up to 3 functions of remote controlled
devices, e.g., garage door openers or lighting
systems, can be operated . As a result, the uni-
versal remote control can replace up to 3 differ-
ent remote controls. To operate, the buttons on
the rearview mirror must be programmed with
the desired functions. For programming, the
remote control for each device is needed.
To prevent possible damage or injury,
before programming or using the inte-
grated universal remote control, always inspect
the immediate area to make certain that no
people, animals or objects are within the travel
range of the device.
Comply also with the safe ty instructions supplied
with the original hand-held transmitter. <
Before selling the vehicle, delete the stored
functions as a safety precaution, page 87.
Compatibility
Depending on your vehicle's equip-
ment, the glove compartment can be
ventilated and, if the cooling function is
switched on, can also be cooled.
For additional information, please contact your
MINI dealer or call: 1-800-355-3515. A list of compatible remo
te controls is available
on the Internet at www.homelink.com.

General information
1.Switch on ignition.
2. Initial startup:
Press and hold the righ t and left buttons on
the rearview mirror for approx. 20 seconds
until the LED on the rearview mirror starts
flashing quickly. All the programming for the
buttons on the rearview mirror is deleted.
3. Hold the original hand-held transmitter at a
distance of approx. 1 in/2.5 cm to 3 in/8 cm
from the buttons on the rearview mirror. The
required distance depends on the hand-
held transmitter.
4. Press both the desire d function on the
remote and the button to be programmed

5.As soon as the LED flashes rapidly, release
both buttons. The quick flashing indicates
that the button on the rearview mirror has
been programmed.
If the LED does not flash rapidly after
approx. 60 seconds, alter the distance
between the rearview mirror and hand-held
transmitter and repeat this step. Several
attempts at different distances may be
necessary. Wait at le ast 15 seconds before
each attempt.
Canada: if the programming was interrupted
by the hand-held transm itter, press and hold
the memory button and press the button on
the hand-held transmit ter for 2 seconds and
release several times.
6. To program other functions on other
buttons, repeat steps 3 to 5.
You can operate the system with the engine
running or with the ignition switched on.
Special features of hopping-code
transmitter systems
If the device cannot be operated after being
programmed repeatedly, then check if the
device to be operated is equipped with a hop-
ping-code system. In a ddition, check in the
operating instructions for the device or press the
programmed button on the rearview mirror for a
longer period of time. If the LED on the rearview
mirror first flashes quickl y and then is on for
2 seconds, then the device is equipped with a
hopping-code system. The flashing and the LED
being on repeats itself for approx. 20 seconds.
In addition, for devices with hopping-code
systems, the integrated universal remote control
and the device must be synchronized.
Information about synchr onizing can be found
in the operating in structions for the device to be
set.
Programming will be easier with the aid of a
second person. Synchronizing:
1.
Park your vehicle within the range of the
remote-controlled device.
Do not exceed the 164 ft/50 m range of the
remote-controlled device.
2. Program the particular button on the rear-
view mirrors as described.
3. Find and press the button for synchronizing
the device to be set. There remain approx.
30 seconds for the next step.
4. Press and hold the programmed button on
the rearview mirror for approx. 3 seconds
and then release. Repeat this step, possibly
up to three times, to complete the synchro-
nization. After the sy nchronization is com-
pleted, the programmed function is imple-
mented.
To reprogram individual buttons
1. Switch on ignition.
2. Press and hold the button to be pro-
grammed on the rearview mirror.
3. As soon as the LED on the rearview mirror
starts flashing slowly, hold the hand-held
transmitter of the device to be operated
approx. 1in/2.5cm to 3in/8cm from the
buttons on the rearview mirror. The required
distance depends on the hand-held trans-
mitter.
4. Press and also hold the button with the
desired function on the hand-held trans-
mitter.
5. As soon as the LED on the rearview mirror
starts blinking faster, release both buttons.
The quick flashing indicates that the button
on the rearview mirror has been pro-
grammed. The device can now be operated
using the button on the rearview mirror.
Canada: if the LED is not flashing rapidly
after 60 seconds, change the distance and
repeat the step or, if the programming was
interrupted by the hand-held transmitter,
press and hold the memory button and
press the button on the hand-held transmit-
ter for 2 seconds and release several times.
