Indicator and warning
lamps
Technology that monitors itself
Indicator and warning lamps that are iden-
tified by
+
are tested for proper functioning
whenever the ignition key is turned. They
each light up once for different periods of
time.
If a fault should occur in one of these sys-
tems, the corresponding lamp does not go
out after the engine is started or it lights up
again while the vehicle is moving. The indi-
cated pages provide information on what
measures to take.

The central locking system can be oper-
ated
>
from outside using the remote control
or via the driver's door lock
>
from inside via the central locking sys-
tem button.
If it is operated from inside, the fuel filler
door will not be locked. Refer to page
20
.
The anti-theft system is automatically acti-
vated whenever you activate the central
locking system from outside the vehicle. It
prevents the doors from being unlocked
with the lock buttons or release handles.
The alarm system is also armed.
The central locking system unlocks auto-
matically in the event of an accident. In
addition, the hazard warning flashers and
interior lamps come on.
Remote control
The concept
The remote control provides two additional
functions for central locking.

Manual convertible top
The fabric top offers perfect protection
against the weather and it can be opened
easily and quickly by one person alone.
Here are a few tips so that you get the most
out of your Z4 roadster:
>
It is advisable to close the convertible
top when the vehicle is parked.
The closed convertible top not only pro-
tects the passenger compartment from
unforeseeable damage from the
weather, but also provides a certain
degree of theft protection
>
In addition, only keep valuables in the
locked luggage compartment, even
with the convertible top closed
>
When the convertible top is open, the
central locking system also locks the
release button for the convertible top.
The convertible top cannot be oper-
ated. This provides better theft protec-
tion for valuables stored in the luggage
compartment
>
Never mount a roof-mounted luggage
rack system on the convertible top.
To open the convertible top
Operate the convertible top only
when the vehicle is stationary.
Never store the convertible top for longer
than one day while it is wet to avoid perma-
nent damage from moisture.
<
Before opening the convertible top,
make sure that the convertible top
compartment panel in the luggage com-
partment is lowered to avoid any possible
damage; refer to page
22
.

Fully automatic convertible
top*
The fully automatic convertible top com-
bines assured protection against the ele-
ments with simple and easy handling.
Here are a few tips so that you get the most
out of your roadster:
>
it is advisable to close the convertible
top when the vehicle is parked. The
closed convertible top not only protects
the passenger compartment from
unforeseeable damage from the
weather, but also provides a certain
degree of theft protection. In addition,
only keep valuables in the locked lug-
gage compartment, even with the con-
vertible top closed.
>
Never mount a roof-mounted luggage
rack system on the convertible top.
>
To prevent damage, do not operate the
convertible top at temperatures below
14
7/–106.
Never store the convertible top while
it is wet to avoid permanent damage
from moisture.
<
Driving when the opening or closing
process has not been completed can
cause vehicle damage or personal injury.
Do not lay objects on the convertible top,
since they could fall off when the convert-
ible top is operated and cause damage or
injuries.
Do not reach into the convertible top mech-
anism during opening and closing. Keep
children away from the moving parts of the
convertible top during operation.
<
If possible, only operate the convert-
ible top with the vehicle stopped, as
otherwise the process may be interrupted.
If you set the convertible top in motion with
the vehicle stationary and then have to start
suddenly – for instance, at a traffic light –
you can still complete the operation by
driving as slowly as possible and again
pressing and maintaining pressure on the
button.
<
At higher speeds, the ensuing vac-
uum in the passenger compartment
can cause the convertible top to begin flut-
tering. Increase the air supply so that a low
pressure draft does not occur in the vehi-
cle.

Alarm system*
The concept
The vehicle alarm system responds:
>
When a door, the hood or the luggage
compartment lid is opened
>
When attempts are made to start the
vehicle
>
To movement inside the vehicle – inte-
rior motion sensor
>
To alterations in the vehicle tilt, e.g. as
would occur during attempts to steal
the wheels or tow the vehicle
>
To interruption of battery voltage.
The alarm produced by the system in the
event of unauthorized vehicle entry and
attempted theft depends on the country
version:
>
Sounding of an acoustical alarm for
30 seconds
>
Activation of the hazard warning flash-
ers for approx. five minutes.
Arming and disarming the alarm sys-
tem
When the vehicle is locked or unlocked
either via the driver's door lock or with the
remote control, the alarm system is simul-
taneously armed or disarmed.
The hazard warning flashers blink once

armed.
You can have different acknowledg-
ment signals set to confirm arming
and disarming.
<
You can open the luggage compartment lid
when the system is armed by pressing the
remote control button. Refer to page

Adjustments
Safe seating position
For relaxed and fatigue-free driving you
should select a seating position that
reflects your personal requirements. The
correct seating position combines with
safety belts and airbags to enhance occu-
pant safety in the event of an accident. To
ensure that the vehicle's safety systems
provide you with optimal protection, we
request that you direct your careful atten-
tion to the following section.
For supplementary information on trans-
porting children, refer to page
34
.
Sitting safely with airbags
Always maintain an adequate dis-
tance between yourself and the air-
bags.
Always hold the steering wheel by its rim
with hands at the 9 and 3 o'clock positions,
to minimize the risk of injuries to your
hands or arms in the event of airbag
deployment. Never allow any objects, indi-
viduals or animals to obstruct the areas
between passengers and airbags. Never
use the front airbag's cover as a storage
tray or support for objects of any kind.
Never allow front passengers to rest their
feet or legs on the airbag cover.
<
For airbag locations and additional infor-
mation on airbags, refer to page
33
.
Sitting safely with safety belts
Never allow more than one person to
wear a single safety belt. Never allow
infants or small children to ride in a passen-
ger's lap. Avoid twisting the belt while rout-
ing it firmly across the pelvis and shoulder,
wear it as snugly against your body as pos-
sible. Do not allow the belt to rest against
hard or fragile objects. Do not route the belt
across your neck, or run it across sharp
edges. Be sure that the belt does not
become caught or jammed. Avoid wearing
bulky clothing and pull on the lap belt peri-
odically to retension it over your shoulders.
In the event of a frontal impact, a loose lap
belt could slide over your hips, leading to
abdominal injury. In addition, the safety
belt's restraint effectiveness is reduced if
the belt is worn loosely. Expectant mothers
should always wear their safety belts, tak-
ing care to position the lap belt against the
lower hips, where it will not exert pressure
against the abdominal area.
<
For information on using the safety belts,
refer to page
31
.
Seats
Before adjusting your seat, always
observe the following precautions
Never try to adjust your seat while
operating the vehicle. The seat could
respond with an unexpected movement,
and the ensuing loss of vehicle control
could result in an accident. Never ride with
the backrest inclined to an extreme angle –
especially important for the front passen-
ger to remember. If you do so, there is a
risk that you will slide under the safety belt
in the event of an accident, thus reducing
the protection provided by the safety belt.
