Remote control with integrated key
Each remote control contains a battery which is
automatically charged in the ignition lock while
driving. Use each remote control for an
extended drive at least twice a year to keep the
battery charged. For Comfort Access
*, the
remote control contains a replaceable battery,
refer to page39.
Depending on which remote control is detected
by the vehicle during unlocking, different set-
tings are called up and carried out in the vehicle,
refer to Key Memory on page31.
Information on the required maintenance is also
stored in the remote control, refer to CBS Con-
dition Based Service, page211.
Integrated key
Press button1 to release the key.
You can use the integrated key to lock and
unlock the following:
>the storage compartment under the front
armrest
>the driver's door
>the luggage compartment lid
Inside the storage compartment, you will also
find the switch for locking the luggage compart-
ment lid separately, refer to page35.
If you then lock the storage compartment under
the center armrest, refer to page114, and only
surrender the remote control, this will prevent
unauthorized access to the vehicle through the
luggage compartment lid. This is an advantage
in a hotel, for example.
New remote controls
New remote controls, additional or when lost,
can be obtained from your BMW center.
Spare key
Store the spare key in a safe place such as your
wallet. This key is not intended for constant
use.
The spare key and integrated key fit the same
locks.

Adapter for spare key
You will need the adapter to activate the ignition
and to start the vehicle with the spare key.
Take the adapter from the onboard tool kit, refer
to page213.
Press lock button1, slide the cover open and
insert the spare key2 into the adapter. Close
the cover and insert the adapter into the ignition
lock.
Key Memory
The concept
You can set a number of functions of your BMW
individually according to your preferences. Key
Memory ensures that most of these settings are
stored for the remote control currently in use
without you having to do anything. When the
vehicle is unlocked, the corresponding remote
control is detected and the settings stored for it
are called up and carried out.
This means that your BMW will return to your
personal settings even if it has in the meantime
been driven by another person with his/her own
remote control and settings. The individual set-
tings are stored for a maximum of four remote
controls.

Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for opera-
tion whenever the driver's door is closed. This
simultaneously engages and releases the locks
on the following:
>Doors
>Luggage compartment lid
>Fuel filler door
The central locking system can be operated
from the outside:
>via the remote control
>via the driver's door lock
>with Comfort Access
* via the door handles
and from inside via the button for the central
locking system.
When the system is locked from inside, the fuel
filler door remains unlocked. Refer to page34.

Opening and closing
32 Each time the central locking system is locked
or unlocked from outside the vehicle, this simul-
taneously engages or disengages the anti-theft
system. The alarm system is also armed or dis-
armed. The remote control also switches the
interior lamps on and off.
For additional details on alarm system
refer to
page37.
In an accident of corresponding severity, the
central locking system automatically unlocks
the vehicle. In addition, the hazard warning
flashers and interior lamps switch on.

parked vehicle can lock the doors from
the inside. For this reason, bring the remote
