System Components
Remote Key: Features:
• 3 volt lithium battery (commercially available CR 2016)
is used as the power supply for the key transmitters.
• An EEPROM is used to store the key data.
The data is not lost when the battery is re-
placed and initialization is not required.
• The key incorporates an LED that signals the opera-
tor of signal transmitting, key initialization status and
key self test indication.
• The keys are delivered
with a four color label
sheet containing differ-
ent colored labels for
each of the four pos-
sible FZV keys.
This is helpful to differenti-
ate the FZV keys during initialization preventing the pos
sibility of mis-assigning the key ID which would change
the encoded Key Memory functions.
Model Year 2000 Key
Visual Changes:
• New appearance with blue and white BMW roundel.
• New button arrangement (larger buttons) with seq-
uential operation (enhanced operating convenience).

Sleep Mode
To lower the constant battery draw when the vehicle is parked, the complete ZKE system
will go into the “Sleep Mode” 16 minutes after the ignition has been switched off and no
further ZKE function is active.
For example, the approximate E39 (528i) Battery draw is:
• Ignition switch off = approx 750 mA.
• One minute after = approx. 560 mA.
• After 16 minutes (sleep mode) = approx. 18 mA.
All modules in the ZKE system will go into the sleep mode. The P-Bus remains active, how-
ever no data transfer takes place until a wake-up request is received. The general module,
door modules or keyless remote module can wake the system up and put the ZKE back
on line. The K-Bus is active (high) in the sleep mode.
Sleep Mode Criteria:
KL R, KL 15 OFF and no further function activated for 16 minutes.
Wake Up Criteria:
KL R or 15 “ON” or a change in one of the signals listed below.
