Electric Power Windows - BMW M COUPE Manual

Luggage compartment lid Electric power windows
Do not drive with the luggage
compartment lid open, since ex-
haust fumes could penetrate the interior
of the vehicle. Should it be absolutely
necessary to operate the vehicle with
the luggage compartment lid open
(coupe; roadster with closed convert-
ible top):
> Close all windows. On the coupe,
close the sunroof.
> Increase the air supply of the heating
and ventilation system to a high level.
Refer to page 80 or 84.<
Opening and closing windows
From ignition key position 1 and up:
> Depress the rocker switch until you
feel resistance.
The window continues moving for as
long as you maintain pressure on the
switch.
> Press the rocker switch beyond the
pressure point (one-touch mode):
The window moves automatically.
Press the switch a second time to
stop the window.
After the ignition has been switched off:
Actuation is still possible for up to
15 minutes in ignition key position 0 or
if the ignition key has been removed, as
long as no doors have been opened.
Because the power windows are
sealed at high pressure to prevent
wind noise when closed, a powerful
motor is required for efficient closing.
When closing the windows, always en-
sure that they are not obstructed in any
way. Unsupervised use of these sys-
tems can result in serious personal in-
jury. Remove the ignition key to deacti-
vate the electric power windows when-
ever you leave the car. Never leave the
keys in the car with unsupervised chil-
dren.
Never place anything that could ob-
struct the driver's vision on or next to
the windows.<
For convenience closing via the door
lock, refer to page 36.
