BMW 2008 528xi Sedan Manual Do Proprietário

Opening and

closing

Tilt alarm sensor

The tilt of the vehicle is monitored. The alarm
system reacts, e.g. in case of an attempted
wheel theft or towing.

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 two-level garages

When transporting on car-carrying trains,
by sea or on a trailer

When animals are to remain in the vehicle

Switching off tilt alarm sensor and
interior motion sensor

Press the

button on the remote control

again as soon as the vehicle is locked.
The indicator lamp lights up briefly and then
flashes continuously. The tilt alarm sensor and
the interior motion sensor are switched off until
the next time the vehicle is unlocked and subse-
quently locked again.

Comfort access*

Comfort access allows you to access your vehi-
cle without having to hold the remote control in
your hand. It is sufficient to carry the remote
control with you, e.g. in your jacket pocket. The
vehicle automatically detects the associated
remote control in the immediate vicinity or in
the interior.
Comfort access supports the following func-
tions:

Unlocking/locking vehicle

Comfort closing

Opening luggage compartment lid/tailgate
separately

Sports Wagon: opening rear window sepa-
rately

Starting engine

Functional requirement

The vehicle or the luggage compartment
lid/tailgate can only be locked if the vehicle
detects that the remote control you are car-
rying is outside the vehicle.

The next unlocking and locking cycle is not
possible until after approx. 2 seconds.

The engine can only be started if the vehicle
detects that the remote control is located in
the vehicle.

Comparison with ordinary remote
control

You can control the functions mentioned previ-
ously with the comfort access or by pressing
the buttons on the remote control. Therefore,
please familiarize yourself with the information
on opening and closing beginning on page

beforehand.
The special features when using comfort
access are described in the following.

Should a short delay occur when opening
or closing the windows or the glass sun-

roof, the system is checking whether a remote
control is located in the vehicle. Please repeat
opening or closing if necessary.
