Or is it just that the alarm is activated, and if unlocked, the alarm will go off?

With warnings like that, I'm worried about trying. Which may be the point. But not everyone will see the warning. Especially when the car driven by someone else or a second owner.

Also, what if you want to step out of the car for a few minutes, and leave it running. Can the car be locked/unlocked from outside the car while running?

Thanks,
I have 2015 X3 and you will not be able to leave the car running if you have the key fob with you. Once you leave the car with your key fob even a couple of feet away will kill the engine. If you leave the key fob in the car to keep it running then you will not be able to lock it.
