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.<

nents, 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 system or affect the validity 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.<

Parts and accessories

For your own safety, use genuine parts and accessories approved by the manu-

facturer 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 compo-

Indicator and warning lamps

The concept

Indicator and warning lamps can light up in various combinations and colors in indicator area 1 or 2.

Some lamps are checked for proper functioning and thus come on briefly when the engine is started or the ignition is switched on.

What to do in case of a malfunction

A list of all indicator and warning lamps, as well as notes on possible causes of malfunctions and on how to respond, can be found starting on page 144.

Opening and closing

Keys/remote controls

Integrated key

Remote control

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 27.

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 18.

In addition, information about service requirements is stored in the remote control, refer to Service data in the remote control, page 125.

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: > Driver’s door, page 21.

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.

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.

Personal Profile settings

For more information on specific settings, refer to the specified pages.

The alarm system* is also activated or deactivated, page 24.

Operating from inside

Button for central locking system, page 22.

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.<

Using the remote control

Unlocking

Press the button.

The welcome lamps and interior lamps come on.

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

>Liftgate

>Fuel filler flap

Operating from outside

>Via the remote control

>Via the door lock*

>In cars with Comfort Access*, via the door handles on the driver’s and passenger’s sides

The remote control can also be used to switch on/off the welcome lamps and interior lamps.

Unlocking mode

You can also set which parts of the car are unlocked. The setting is stored for the remote control in use.

1.Switch on the ignition, refer to page 39.

Adjustments

Sitting safely

The ideal sitting position can make a vital contribution to relaxed, fatigue-free driving. In conjunction 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 systems operate with optimal efficiency, we strongly urge you to observe the instructions contained in the following section.

For additional information on transporting children safely, refer to page 36.

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 should come between the airbags and the seat occupant.

Do not use the cover of the front airbag on the front passenger side as a storage area. Ensure that the front passenger is correctly seated, e.g. that no feet or legs are propped against the dashboard. Otherwise, leg injury could result if the front airbag suddenly deployed.

Make sure that passengers keep their heads away from the side airbag and do not lean against the cover of the head airbag, otherwise injuries can occur when the airbags are triggered.<

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

For airbag locations and additional information on airbags, refer to page 64.

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.<

Head restraints, refer to page 32.

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.

Number of safety belts

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.

Make sure that the belt in the lap area sits low across the hips and does not press against the abdomen. The safety belt must not rest against the throat, run across sharp edges, pass over hard or fragile objects or be pinched. Fasten the safety belt so that it is pulled taut across the lap and shoulder, fitting the body snugly without any twists. Otherwise, the belt could slide over the hips in the event of a frontal collision and injure the abdomen. Avoid wearing bulky clothing and regularly pull the belt in the upper-body area taut; otherwise, its restraining effect could be impaired.<

Safety belts, refer to page 33.

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

Online Edition for Part no. 01 40 2 606 301 — © 10/10 BMW AG

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 danger in the event of an accident of sliding under the safety belt, eliminating the protection normally provided by the belt.<

Transporting children safely

The right place for children

Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle; otherwise, they could endanger

themselves and/or other persons by opening the doors, for example.<

Children should always sit in the rear

Accident research has shown that the safest place for children is on the rear seat.

Only transport children under the age of 13 or smaller than 5 ft/150 cm in the rear in a child restraint system suitable for their age,

weight and size. Otherwise, there is an increased risk of injury in the event of an accident.<

Children 13 years of age or older must be buckled in with a safety belt as soon as there no longer is any child restraint system that is appropriate for their age, size and weight.

Child restraint systems, installation

Before installing a child restraint system on the rear seats, move the seat as far back as possible.

After the child restraint system has been installed on the respective rear seat, move the backrest forward so that the it rests lightly against the child restraint system, refer to Rear seat backrests on page 88.

Observe the child restraint system manufacturer’s instructions when selecting,

installing and using child restraint systems. Otherwise, the protective effect may be diminished.<

On the front passenger seat

After installing a child restraint system on the front passenger seat, make sure that

the front, side, and knee airbags for the front passenger are deactivated; otherwise, there is an increased risk of injury if the airbags deploy.<

Exception for front passenger seat

Front passenger airbags

Should it be necessary to use a child restraint system on the front passenger

seat, the front and side airbags must be deactivated. Otherwise, there is an increased risk of injury to the child if the airbags deploy, even if the child is seated in a child restraint system.<

For more information on automatic deactivation of the front passenger airbags, refer to page 65.

Seat position

Before installing a child restraint system, move the front passenger seat as far back and up* as possible to obtain the best possible position for the belt. Do not change the seat position after this.

Starting the engine

Do not allow the engine to run in enclosed areas; otherwise, inhalation of the noxious exhaust gases can lead to loss of consciousness and death. Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, an odorless and colorless, but highly toxic gas. Never leave an unattended vehicle with the engine running; otherwise, such a vehicle repre-

sents a potential safety hazard.

Before leaving the car while the engine is running, place the transmission in neutral or move the selector lever to position P and forcefully apply the parking brake to prevent the car from moving.<

Avoid frequent starting in quick succession or repeated start attempts in which

the engine does not start. Otherwise, the fuel is not burned or inadequately burned and there is a danger of overheating and damaging the catalytic converter.<

Do not let the engine warm up with the vehicle at a standstill. Move off immediately at a moderate engine speed.
