Locking without Anti-theft warning
So I know when you use the BMW remote app the anti-theft warning doesn't activate. Is there any way to do this quicker, from the car?
The reason I ask is I occasionally take long roadtrips just me and my dog. For the 2 minutes I run to the bathroom at gas station I want to be able to lock her in the car (never longer than that, don't worry). However, last time I did this she set off the anti-theft warning. I've got lots of stuff in the car so I don't want to leave it unlocked. But it takes just as long for the BMW app to send the lock signal as it does for me to run inside. Any simple solutions for this? I've tried manually pressing down the lock on the door. BTW, I have the keyless access. |

You can use the central locking button. You must have the driver door closed, or the car won't lock. Have the passenger door or one of the rear doors open, reach up to the dash and press the central locking button and then get out and close the door. You'll then unlock the car with the key fob.

You need to press the lock button on your key fob a second time after locking your vehicle to turn off the tilt and interior motion sensors. Refer to page 42 of the BMW manual for more details.
