BMW 745i Manual Do Proprietário

Opening and closing

You can also have the system pro-
grammed to activate the central

locking system automatically whenever the
vehicle is set in motion, or when a specific
interval elapses after it is unlocked, pro-
vided that neither the doors nor the lug-
gage compartment lid are opened in the
meantime. This can be adjusted to be key-
specific.

Unlocking and opening the doors

Either unlock the doors together with
the button for the central locking
system and then pull the release handle
above the armrest or

pull the release handle for each door
twice: the first pull unlocks the door,
and the second one opens it.

When the low beams are switched on,
the interior door handles are also

lighted. The intensity of the lighting is
adjusted using the instrument lighting, refer
to page

103

Engaging the locks

Use the central locking button to lock all
of the doors simultaneously,
or

press the individual safety lock buttons
down. To prevent the driver from being
inadvertently locked out of the vehicle,
the lock button on the driver's door
automatically extends again after a brief
period if the door remains open.

Do not use the safety lock buttons to
engage the locks during driving, as

they would then fail to disengage automat-
ically in the event of an accident.
Because any persons or animals left unat-
tended in a parked vehicle could lock the
doors from the inside, you should always
keep the remote control unit with you; this
precaution ensures that you will remain
able to unlock the vehicle from the outside
at all times.

Doors

Soft Close Automatic*

Apply gentle pressure to the door to close
it. The closing process will then be carried
out automatically.

To avoid injuries, ensure that the
door's travel path is completely free

and clear before closing.

Luggage compartment lid

Opening from outside

Press the button. The luggage compart-
ment lid opens.

During opening the luggage compart-
ment lid pivots upward and to the

rear. Ensure that adequate clearance is
available before opening.

The lock

All of the vehicle's keys fit the luggage
compartment lid lock located in the license
plate recess.
