BMW 530XD - Manual (Page 33)

Opening and
closing
32
All keys, see page 26 , fit the lock on the luggage
compartment lid.
Locking separately
Turn a key in the luggage compartment lid
beyond a pressure point clockwise and remove
in the horizontal position.
This locks the luggage compartment lid and
disconnects it from the central locking system.
If you then give the remote control to a third
party with the integrated key, see page
26 , it will
not be possible to access the luggage compart-
ment. This is an advantage at hotels, for exam-
ple.
Releasing and opening manually
Turn the key as far as possible anti-clockwise:
The luggage compartment lid opens.
If you open the luggage compartment lid
via the lock when the alarm system
* is
armed, the alarm will be triggered off. You
should therefore unlock the car first. If the alarm
has inadvertently been triggered off: switching
off the alarm, see page
35 . <
Closing
To avoid injuries, make sure that the clos-
ing area of the luggage compartment lid is
unobstructed. <
The recessed handles in the luggage compart-
ment lid lining make it easier to pull the luggage
compartment lid down.
Touring: opening and closing rear
window
The rear window can be opened separately for
ease of loading and unloading small items.
The load area cover is raised when the
rear window is opened. Before closing the
rear window, press the cover down until it
engages in position.
<
Press the button: the rear window opens a short
way. It can now be swung upwards.
Press the window shut to close it.
Wrap protective material around any
sharp ends or edges of items of luggage
that could strike the rear window while the car is
moving, to prevent these damaging the heating
conductors in the rear window.

Touring: tailgate
Opening from inside
Press the button: the tailgate will open as long
as it is not deadlocked.
