vehicle settings can be stored. Every remote
control has one of these profiles assigned.

trol, the assigned personal profile will be acti‐
vated. All settings stored in the profile are au‐
tomatically applied.

the vehicle will adjust the personal settings
during unlocking. These settings are also re‐
stored, if the vehicle has been used in the
meantime by a person with a different remote
control.
Changes to the settings are automatically
saved in the profile currently activated.
If another profile is selected via iDrive, the set‐
tings saved in it will be applied automatically.
The new profile is assigned to the remote con‐
trol currently used.

not assigned to any remote control: "Just drive
off (guest)". It can be used to apply settings in
the vehicle without changing the personal pro‐
files.
