Personal Profile

The concept

You can set many of your BMW's functions to
suit your personal needs and preferences.
Without any action on your part, Personal Pro-
file ensures that most of these settings are
stored for the remote control currently in use.
When you unlock the car, the remote control
used for the purpose is recognized and the set-
tings stored for it are called up and imple-
mented.
This means that your personal settings are
active when you return to your BMW, even if the
car was used in the meantime by someone else
with a remote control of their own and the set-
tings were changed accordingly.
You can configure a maximum of three remote
controls for three different people. The prereq-
uisite for this is that each person has his or her
own remote control.

Central locking system

The concept

The central locking system is ready for opera-
tion whenever the driver's door is closed.
The system simultaneously engages and
releases the locks on the following:

>

Doors

>

Tailgate

>

Fuel filler door

Operating from outside

>

Via the remote control

>

Via the door lock

>

In cars with convenient access

*

, via the

handles on the driver's and front passen-
ger's doors

Opening and closing

30

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 interior lamp and the courtesy lamps

*

are also switched on or off with the remote con-
trol. The alarm system

*

is also armed or dis-

armed.

refer to

page

34

.

Operating from inside

By means of the button for central locking, refer
to page

Arming and disarming

When you lock or unlock the vehicle, either with
the remote control or at the door lock, the alarm
system is armed or disarmed at the same time.
Even when the alarm system is armed, you can
open the tailgate by means of the

button on

the remote control, refer to page

31

. When you

subsequently close the tailgate it is again
locked and monitored.

Switching off an alarm

>

Unlock the car with the remote control, refer
to page

30

, or

>

insert the remote control all the way into the
ignition lock.

Indicator lamp displays

>

The indicator lamp under the inside rear-
view mirror flashes continuously: the sys-
tem is armed.

>

The indicator lamp flashes after locking:
doors, hood or tailgate are not properly
closed. Even if you do not close the alerted
area, the system begins to monitor the
remaining areas, and the indicator lamp
flashes continuously after approx. 10 sec-
onds. However, the interior motion sensor
is not activated.

>

The indicator lamp goes out after unlocking:
your vehicle has not been disturbed while
you were away.

>

If the indicator lamp flashes after unlocking
until the remote control is inserted in the
ignition, but for no longer than approx.
5 minutes: your vehicle has been disturbed
while you were away.

Tilt alarm sensor

The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The alarm
system reacts, e.g. to attempts to steal a wheel
or tow the vehicle.

Interior motion sensor

In order for the interior motion sensor to func-
tion properly, the windows and glass sunroof
must be completely closed.

Avoiding unintentional alarms

The tilt alarm sensor and interior motion sensor
may be switched off at the same time. This pre-
vents unintentional alarms, e.g. in the following
situations:

>

In duplex garages

>

When transporting on car-carrying trains

>

When animals are to remain in the vehicle

Switching off tilt alarm sensor and

interior motion sensor

Press the

button on the remote control

twice in a row.
The indicator lamp comes on for approx. two
seconds, then begins to flash steadily. The tilt
alarm sensor and the interior motion sensor are
switched off until the next time the vehicle is
unlocked and subsequently locked again.

Convenient access*

Convenient access enables you to enter your
vehicle without needing to hold the remote con-
trol in your hand. 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 corresponding remote control
within the immediate vicinity or in the passen-
ger compartment.

Opening and closing

36

Convenient access supports the following
functions:

>

Unlocking/locking the vehicle

>

Unlocking the tailgate separately

>

Engine starting

>

Convenient closure

Functional requirement

>

The vehicle or the tailgate can only be
locked when the vehicle detects that the
remote control currently in use is outside of
the vehicle.

>

The vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked
again until after approx. 2 seconds.

>

The engine can only be started when the
vehicle detects that the remote control cur-
rently in use is inside the vehicle.

The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up when you attempt to
start the engine: the engine cannot

be started. The remote control is not inside the
vehicle or is malfunctioning. Take the remote
control with you inside the vehicle or have it
checked. If necessary, insert another remote
control into the ignition switch.

The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up while the engine is
running: the remote control is no

longer inside the vehicle. After the engine is
switched off, the engine can only be restarted
within approx. 10 seconds.

The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster comes on and a message
appears on the Control Display:

For information on convenient operation via the
remote control or the door lock, refer to page

30

Opening and closing

38

or

32

. For information on closing with conve-

nient access, refer to Locking on page

bly injure themselves.

<

Anti-trapping mechanism

If the closing force exceeds a specific value as
an electric window closes, the closing action is
interrupted immediately and the window
reopens slightly.

Despite the anti-trapping mechanism
check and clear the window's travel path

prior to closing it, otherwise the safety system
might fail to detect certain kinds of obstruc-
tions, such as thin objects, and the window
would continue closing.
Pulling the switch beyond the resistance point
and holding it limits the response of the anti-
trapping mechanism. In this case, if the closing
force exceeds a defined threshold, the window
will only open a few fractions of an inch/a few
millimeters.
If the switch is pulled past the resistance point
again within approx. 4 seconds, the anti-trap-
ping mechanism will be deactivated.

<

Safety switch

With the safety switch, you can prevent the rear
windows from being opened or closed via the
switches in the rear passenger area, by chil-
dren, for example. When the safety function is
switched on, the LED comes on.

Always press the safety switch when chil-
dren ride in the rear, otherwise

unchecked closing of the windows could lead to
injuries.

<

Accessories in a window area

If you install accessories within the power win-
dow movement range, e.g. a clip-on antenna for
your mobile phone, the system must be initial-
ized to teach it the new conditions. BMW rec-
ommends having this work done by your BMW
Center.

Panorama glass roof*

The panorama glass roof is operational when
the ignition is switched on, refer to page

53

.

To prevent injuries, exercise care when
closing the panorama glass roof and keep

it in your field of vision until it is shut.
Take the remote control with you when you
leave the car, otherwise children could operate
the sunroof and possibly injure themselves.

<

Adjustments

Sitting safely

The ideal sitting position can make a vital con-
tribution to relaxed, fatigue-free driving. In con-
junction with the safety belts, the head
restraints and the airbags, the seated position
has a major influence on your safety in the event
of an accident. To ensure that the safety sys-
tems operate with optimal efficiency, we
strongly urge you to observe the instructions
contained in the following section.
For additional information on transporting chil-
dren safely, refer to page

50

.

Airbags

Always maintain an adequate distance
between yourself and the airbags. Always

grip the steering wheel on the rim, with your
hands in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions,
to minimize the risk of injury to the hands or
arms in the event of the airbag being triggered
off.
No one and nothing is to come between the air-
bags and the seat occupant.
Do not use the cover of the front airbag on the
front passenger side as a storage area. Make
sure that the front passenger is sitting correctly,
e.g. not resting feet or legs on the instrument
panel, otherwise leg injuries can occur if the
front airbag is triggered.
Make sure that passengers do not lean their
heads against the side or head airbags, other-
wise serious injuries could result if the side air-
bags suddenly deployed.

<

Even if you follow all the instructions, injuries
resulting from contact with airbags cannot be
fully excluded, depending on the circum-
stances. The ignition and inflation noise may
provoke a mild hearing loss in extremely sensi-
tive individuals. This effect is usually only tem-
porary.

on airbags, refer to page

Head restraint

A correctly adjusted head restraint reduces the
risk of neck injury in the event of an accident.

Adjust the head restraint in such a way
that its center is at approx. ear level. Oth-

erwise, there is an increased risk of injury in the
event of an accident.

Safety belt

Before every drive, make sure that all occupants
wear their safety belts. Airbags complement the
safety belt as an additional safety device, but
they do not represent a substitute.

Never allow more than one person to
wear a single safety belt. Never allow

infants or small children to ride in a passenger's
lap.
Expectant mothers should also wear the safety
belt, making sure that the strap in the pelvic
area is well down on the hips and does not press
against the abdominal region of the body.
Do not route the belt across your neck, or run it
across sharp edges. Be sure that the belt does
not become caught or jammed. The safety belt
should not be twisted and must be positioned
firmly over the pelvis and shoulder, as close to
the body as possible. It should not pass over
hard or fragile objects, otherwise the belt in the
pelvic area could slide over the hips in the event
of a head-on collision and injure the lower abdo-
men. Avoid wearing bulky clothing and regularly
pull the belt in the upper-body area taut, other-
wise its restraining effect could be impaired.

Seats

Note before adjusting

Never attempt to adjust your seat while
the vehicle is moving. The seat could

respond with unexpected movement, and the

ensuing loss of vehicle control could lead to an
accident.
On the front passenger seat as well, do not
incline the backrest too far to the rear while the
vehicle is being driven, otherwise there is a dan-
ger in the event of an accident of sliding under
the safety belt, eliminating the protection nor-
mally provided by the belt.
