Notes

For your safety

Maintenance and repair
Advanced technology, e.g. the use of
modern materials and high-performance electronics, requires specially adapted mainte­nance and repair methods. Therefore, have the necessary work on your MINI only carried out by a MINI dealer or a workshop that has specially trained personnel working in accordance with the specifications of the MINI manufacturer. If this work is not carried out properly, there is a danger of subsequent damage and related safety hazards.<
Parts and accessories
For your own safety, use genuine parts
and accessories approved by the manu­facturer of the MINI.
When you purchase accessories tested and approved by the manufacturer of the MINI and Original MINI Parts, you simultaneously acquire the assurance that they have been thor­oughly tested by the manufacturer of the MINI to ensure optimum performance when installed on your vehicle.
The manufacturer of the MINI warrants these parts to be free from defects in material and workmanship.
The manufacturer of the MINI will not accept any liability for damage resulting from installation of parts and accessories not approved by the man­ufacturer of the MINI.
The manufacturer of the MINI cannot test every product made by other manufacturers to verify if it can be used on a MINI safely and without risk to either the vehicle, its operation, or its occupants.
Original MINI Parts, MINI Accessories and other products approved by the manufacturer of the MINI, together with professional advice on using these items, are available from all MINI dealers.
Installation and operation of accessories that have not been approved by the manufacturer of
your MINI, such as alarms, radios, amplifiers, radar detectors, wheels, suspension compo­nents, brake dust shields, telephones, including operation of any mobile phone from within the vehicle without using an externally mounted antenna, or transceiver equipment, for instance, CBs, walkie-talkies, ham radios or similar acces­sories, may cause extensive damage to the vehi­cle, compromise its safety, interfere with the vehicle's electrical sys te m o r a ff ec t t he va lidi ty of the MINI Limited Warranty. See your MINI dealer for additional information.<
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any automotive repair establishment or individual using any certified automotive part.<
California Proposition 65 warning
California law requires us to issue the following warning:
Engine exhaust and a wide variety of
automobile components and parts, including components found in the interior fur­nishings in a vehicle, contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects and reproductive harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain products of component wear con­tain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. Wash your hands after handling.
Used engine oil contains chemicals that have caused cancer in laboratory animals. Always protect your skin by washing thoroughly with soap and water.<

Notes

For voice commands, bear in mind the following:
> Do not use the voice activation system to
initiate an emergency call. In stressful situations, the voice and vocal pitch can change. This can unnecessarily delay the establishment of a telephone connection.
> Pronounce the commands and digits
smoothly and at normal volume, avoiding excessive emphases and pauses. The same applies to spelling when entering a destina­tion for navigation.
> Always speak the commands in the
language of the voice activation system.
> When selecting a radio station, use the
standard pronunciation of the station name.
{Select station} e.g. WPLJ
> Keep the doors and windows closed to
prevent interference from outside noise.
> Avoid ambient noise in the vehicle while
speaking.

2 Unlocking
3 Locking
General information
Each remote control contains a rechargeable battery that is recharged when it is in the ignition lock while the car is being driven. You should therefore use each remote control at least twice a year to maintain the charge status. In vehicles equipped with Comfort Access, the remote control contains a replaceable battery, page 38.
If more than one remote control unit is used, the settings called up and implemented depend on which remote control is recognized when the car is unlocked, refer to Personal Profile, page 28.
In addition, information about service require­ments is stored in the remote control, refer to Service data in the remote control, page 225.
New remote controls
Your MINI dealer can supply new remote con­trols as additional units or as replacements in the event of loss.

Press button 1 to release the key.
The integrated key fits the following locks:

Personal Profile

The concept
The functions of your MINI can be set individu­ally. By means of Personal Profiles, most of these settings are stored for the remote control currently in use. When you unlock the car, the remote control is recognized and the settings stored for it are called up and implemented.
28
Opening and closing CONTROLS
This means that your settings will be activated for you, even if in the meantime your car was used by someone else with another remote control and the corresponding settings.
At most three remote controls can be set for three different people. A prerequisite is that each person uses a separate remote control.

Central locking 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 Comfort 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 han­dles. The remote control can also be used to switch on/off the welcome lamps and interior lamps. The alarm system is also activated or deactivated, page 34.
Operating from inside
Button for central locking system, page 32.
In the event of a sufficiently severe accident, the central locking system unlocks automati­cally. In addition, the hazard warning flashers and interior lamps come on.

Opening and closing: from outside

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 outside.<
