How to set the unlocking sound for BMW?
2 Answers
BMW's locking sound cannot be set. Normally, a BMW does not make any sound when locking (only the sound of the lock engaging), and it cannot be configured. More details about BMW are as follows: 1. BMW (abbreviated as BMW) is a German automobile brand under the BMW Group, which includes the i, x, z, and pure number 4 model series, as well as the 1, 2, 3 series, and the M series (BMW's official high-performance modification division) based on improvements to each series. 2. Taking the BMW 2 Series as an example, it has two versions: the 2 Series Coupe and the 2 Series Convertible. In terms of body dimensions, its length, width, and height are 4454mm, 1774mm, and 1408mm, respectively. 3. The 2 Series models still feature a hidden B-pillar design, with the C-pillar having a steeper angle than the 1 Series Coupe, but it still differs significantly from the style of traditional coupe models, resembling more of a four-door sedan layout.
As a car enthusiast, I particularly enjoy tinkering with various settings, and BMW's unlock sound setup is actually quite interesting. Most BMW models require accessing the iDrive system: first start the vehicle, locate the settings menu on the central control screen, scroll to the doors and keys option, where there's a submenu for unlock sounds. The location may vary slightly depending on the BMW model year, with newer models supporting customizable tones while older ones might only have on/off options. When setting it up, remember to connect the key or ensure the vehicle is stationary to avoid interruptions. I've tested it, and the volume can be adjusted to suit residential areas so it won't disturb neighbors at night. If you can't find the setting path, checking the electronic version of the user manual is very convenient. An additional suggestion is to periodically check the settings to prevent resets, as vehicle software updates might affect existing configurations.
