How to Adjust BMW System Notification Sounds?

First, tap the vehicle's central control screen and select "My Vehicle". On the interface, select "Settings". Locate the option under the "Doors/Keys" section and check the Lock/Unlock notification sound. Alternatively, in the Convenient Access interface, check "Lock when walking away" to complete the lock sound setup.

With years of research into BMW's onboard systems, I can tell you that adjusting the alert tones starts with locating the row of control buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. Press MENU to enter the main interface, swipe to Settings, and you'll find Warning Tones and Voice Reminders listed separately in the Volume menu. Don't just adjust the audio volume—otherwise, the navigation prompts will remain silent. Newer systems even let you choose between 'ding-dong' or 'beep' sounds. I always advise fellow drivers to turn up the collision warning alerts, especially crucial when driving on highways during heavy rain. Remember, holding down the volume button provides quick access to the adjustment interface, much faster than navigating menus. After adjustments, always test the clarity of parking sensor tones by reversing—safety is never something to take lightly.
