How to Set Up Automatic Window Roll-Up When Locking the BMW X3?
2 Answers
You can set up the automatic window roll-up feature when locking the BMW X3 through the car's central control settings. The method to set up the automatic window roll-up for the BMW X3 is as follows: Open the Central Control Page: Open the car's central control page, select Settings, click on Door & Window Settings, then click on Convenience Switch, followed by All Doors & Windows. Next, press the CDR button beside the central control. At this point, all doors and windows will automatically close. Then, take out the key and press the lock button. Now, the automatic window roll-up feature is successfully set up. Long Press the Window Down Button: If the first method doesn't work, the owner needs to activate this feature manually. Long press the window down button for five seconds, then lift the window up button for five seconds. Consult a 4S Store: If both methods fail, consider whether the car has the one-touch automatic window roll-up feature. You can visit a specialized repair shop or a 4S store for consultation. If the car is not equipped with this feature, the owner can choose to install an automatic window roll-up function based on personal preference. This feature can effectively safeguard the car's property security.
Setting up the automatic window closing feature on my BMW X3 is quite simple, and I often use it to prevent rain and theft. The operation method is: after locking the car, press and hold the lock button on the car key for about 3 to 5 seconds until all the windows are fully raised. It might not respond the first time you use it, which is usually because the default setting is not enabled and requires adjustment in the car's iDrive system. After starting the car, open the iDrive menu, go to 'Settings' - 'Vehicle Settings' - 'Doors and Windows', find the 'Comfort Access' option, and turn on the 'Auto Window Closing' switch. Remember to test it once after setting to confirm the effect. This feature is especially practical, particularly on rainy days or when in a hurry, as the windows automatically close after locking the car, avoiding the risk of getting wet or having items stolen. When maintaining the window tracks, you can apply some silicone lubricant to keep the movement smooth. My 2019 X3 has it enabled by default, but it might reset after a software update, so it's recommended to check the settings every six months.
