Opening and closing

Warning lamps

The warning lamp lights up when an
attempt is made to start the engine: the
engine cannot be started. The remote

control is not inside the vehicle or is malfunc-
tioning. Take the remote control with you inside
the vehicle or have it checked. If necessary,
insert another remote control into the ignition
lock.

The warning lamp lights up when the
engine is running: the remote control is
no longer inside the vehicle. After the

engine is switched off, the engine can only be
restarted within approx. 10 seconds.

The indicator lamp comes on and a
message appears on the Control
Display: replace the battery in the

remote control.

Replacing the battery

The remote control for Comfort Access contains
a battery that will need to be replaced from time
to time.

Remove the cover.

Insert the new battery with the plus side
facing up.

Press the cover on to close.

Take the old battery to a recycling center
or to your MINI dealer.

Windows

To prevent injuries, exercise care when
closing the windows.

Take the remote control with you when you
leave the car; otherwise, children could operate
the electric windows and possibly injure
themselves.

If, after a window is opened and closed
several times in close succession, the

window can only be closed and not opened, the
system is overheated. Let the system cool for
several minutes with the ignition switched on or
the engine running.

Opening

Press the switch downward.
The window opens until you release the
switch.

Push the switch downward.
As of radio readiness, the windows will open
automatically. Push the switch again to stop
the opening movement.

To open the window a crack, press the switch
down twice in quick succession.

Closing

In order to close the window, press the switch
up. The window closes until you release the
switch.
