Central lock ing system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for operation
whenever the driver's door is closed.
The system simultaneously engages and
releases the locks on the following:
>Doors
> Tailgate
> Fuel filler flap
Operating from outside
>Via the remote control
> Using the door lock
> In cars with Comfor t Access, via the door
handles on the driver's and passenger's
sides
The anti-theft system is also operated at the
same time. It prevents the doors from being
unlocked using the lock buttons or door han-
dles. The remote control can also be used to
switch the welcome lamps, the interior light, and
the ambient lighting on and off. The alarm sys-
tem
is also activated or deactivated, page 32.
Operating from inside
Switch/button for central locking system,
page30.
In the event of a sufficiently severe accident, the
central locking system unlocks automatically. In
addition, the hazard warning flashers and inte-
rior lamps come on.
Opening and closing:

Persons or animals in a parked vehicle
could lock the doors from the inside. Take
the key with you when you leave the vehicle so
that the vehicle can be opened from the out-
side. <

The handle recesses on the interior trim panel of
the tailgate make it easier to pull it down.
Alarm system
The concept
The alarm system, when activated, reacts if:
>A door, the engine compartment lid or the
tailgate is opened
> There is movement inside the car
> The car's inclination changes, for instance if
an attempt is made to ja ck it up and steal the
wheels or to raise it prior to towing it away
> There is an interruption in the power supply
from the battery
The alarm system briefly indicates unauthorized
entry or tampering by means of:
> An acoustic alarm
> Switching on the haza rd warning flashers
Arming and disarming
General information
Whenever the car is locked or unlocked, the
alarm system is armed or disarmed.
Door lock with armed alarm system
Because of the design, unlocking the door lock
may trigger the alarm in some countries.
To turn off the alarm, unlock the vehicle using
the remote control or switch on the ignition.
Tailgate with armed alarm system
Even when the alarm syst em is armed, you can
open the tailgate by means of the button
on the remote control.
When you subsequently close the tailgate it is
again locked and monitored.
Panic mode
You can activate the alarm system if you find
yourself in a dangerous situation.
Press the button for at least 2 seconds.
Switching off the alarm:
Press any button.
Switching off an alarm
> Unlock the car with the remote control.
> Insert the key fully into the ignition lock.
> In cars with Comfort Access, press the button
on the door lock.
Display on the revolution counter
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 prop-
erly closed. Even if these are not closed fully,
the remaining items ar e 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 an d the interior movement
detector can be swit ched 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.
LEDs flash in short succession for approx.
2 seconds.
The tilt alarm sensor an d the interior movement
detector are switched of f until the car is next
unlocked and locked.
Comfort Access
The concept
Access to the vehicle is po ssible 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. Th e vehicle automatically
detects the remote control within the immedi-
ate vicinity or in the passenger compartment.
Comfort Access supports the following func-
tions: >
Unlocking/locking the vehicle
> Convenient closing
> Unlocking the tailgate 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.
> The engine can only be started if the remote
control is in the vehicle.
> The doors and tailgate mu st be closed to be
able to operate the windows and glass roof.
Comparison to standard remote controls
The indicated function can be operated by
pressing the buttons or via Comfort Access.
Instructions on openin g and closing are found
starting on page 26.
If you notice a brief delay while opening or
closing the windows or glass roof, the sys-
tem is checking whether a remote control is
inside the vehicle. Repeat the opening or closing
procedure, if necessary. <
Unlocking
Press button 1.
Depending on the setting, refer to Unlocking
mode on page 27, only the driver's door or the
entire vehicle is unlocked.

In cars equipped with an alarm system, the
headlamps cannot be cleaned when the hood is
open. Do not use the washers when the washer
fluid reservoir is empt y; otherwise, you will
damage the washer pump.
Only use the washers if the hood has been com-
pletely closed; otherwise, the headlamp washer
system
may be damaged. Do not use the wash-
ers if there is any danger that the fluid will freeze
on the windshield. If you do, your vision could be
obscured. For this reason, use antifreeze. <

Washer fluid
General information
Washer fluid is flammable. Keep it away
from ignition sources, only store it in the
closed, original container, and keep out of reach
of children; otherwise, there is a danger of
injury. Comply with the instructions on the con-
tainer. <
United States: the washer fluid mixture ratio is
regulated by the U.S. EPA and many individual
states; do not exceed the applicable limits on
allowable washer fluid dilution ratios. Follow the
usage instructions on the washer fluid container.
Use MINI Windshield Washer Concentrate or the
equivalent.
Washer fluid reservoir
Only refill washer fl uid that contains anti-
freeze when the engine is cool, to avoid
contact with hot engine parts. Otherwise, fluid
spills constitute a fire hazard and a risk to per-
sonal safety. <
