I press the center lock button on the key,
one time. A 2nd push arms the alarm; one
push only locks the car w/out alarm.

I think this varies by year of the X5. On my 2005, one push of the lock button locks and sets the alarm. A second push will turn off the interior motion sensor and the tilt sensor (so a dog locked in the car won't set things off, for example).
