Luggage Compartment Lid - BMW M COUPE 2001 Manual

Luggage compartment lid

34n
The lock
The illustration depicts the luggage
compartment lock of the M roadster
as an example.
The operation and function for the
M coupe are the same as for the
M roadster.
Only the master keys (refer to page 30)
will fit in the luggage compartment lock.
On the M coupe the central locking
system is only actuated during opening.
Locking separately
(not on the M coupe)
Turn the master key to the right past the
resistance point and then pull it out in
the horizontal position
This locks the luggage compartment
and disengages it from the central
locking system. If you then surrender
only the door and ignition key (refer to
page 30), access to the vehicle through
the luggage compartment is not
possible. This is recommended for valet
parking, for instance.
Manual operation
(in the event of electrical malfunction)
Turn the master key in the lock of the
luggage compartment lid to the left to
the stop – the luggage compartment
opens slightly.
The luggage compartment is locked
again as soon as it is closed.
To close
The illustration depicts the luggage
compartment lid of the M coupe.
The handle recess in the interior trim
panel of the luggage compartment lid
(arrow) makes it easier to pull the lid
down.
On the M roadster, the handle recess is
located to the left of the lock mecha-
nism.
To avoid injuries, be sure that the
travel path of the luggage
compartment lid is clear when it is
closed, as with all closing procedures.<
