be necessary to adapt your vehicle to poten‐
tially differing operating conditions and permit
requirements. If your vehicle does not comply
with the homologation requirements in a cer‐
tain country you may not be able to lodge war‐
ranty claims for your vehicle there. Further in‐
formation on warranty is available from a
dealer’s service center.
Maintenance and repairs
Advanced technology, e.g., the use of modern
materials and high-performance electronics,
requires suitable maintenance and repair work.
The manufacturer of your vehicle recommends
that you entrust corresponding procedures to a
MINI dealer’s service center. If you choose to
use another service facility, the manufacturer of
your vehicle recommends use of a facility that
performs work, e.g. maintenance and repair,
according to MINI specifications with properly
trained personnel, referred to in this Owner's
Manual as "another qualified service center or
repair shop".
If work is performed improperly, e.g. mainte‐
nance and repair, there is a risk of subsequent
damage and related safety risks.
Parts and accessories The manufacturer of your vehicle recommends
the use of parts and accessory products ap‐ proved by the manufacturer of the MINI.
Approved parts and accessories, and advice on
their use and installation are available from a
MINI dealer's service center.
MINI parts and accessories were tested by the
manufacturer of the MINI for their safety and
suitability in MINI vehicles.
The manufacturer of your vehicle warrants gen‐
uine MINI parts and accessories.
The manufacturer of your vehicle does not
evaluate whether each individual product from
another manufacturer can be used with MINI
vehicles without presenting a safety hazard,
even if a country-specific official approval wasissued. The manufacturer of your vehicle does
not evaluate whether these products are suita‐
ble for MINI vehicles under all usage conditions.

Comfort Access
The concept
The vehicle can be accessed without activating

tects the remote control when it is nearby or in
the passenger compartment.
Comfort Access supports the following func‐
tions:▷Unlocking/locking of the vehicle.▷Unlocking of the tailgate separately.▷Starting the engine.
Functional requirements
▷There are no external sources of interfer‐
ence in the vicinity.▷To lock the vehicle, the remote control
must be located outside of the vehicle.▷The next unlocking and locking cycle is not
possible until after approx. 2 seconds.▷The engine can only be started if the re‐
mote control is inside the vehicle.▷The doors and tailgate must be closed to
operate the windows.
Comparison with ordinary remote
control
The functions can be controlled by pressing the
buttons or via Comfort Access.
Notes on opening and closing, refer to page 20.
If you notice a brief delay while opening or
closing the windows or glass sunroof, the sys‐
tem is checking whether a remote control is in‐
side the vehicle. Repeat the opening or closing
procedure, if necessary.
