34nKeys
1 The master keys with remote control
determine the functions of the Key
Memory. Refer to page 56.
There is an extended-life battery
in every master key which is
charged automatically in the ignition
lock as you drive.
For this reason, if you have a master
key that is otherwise not used, use that
key approx. once every year while
driving for an extended period. This will
charge the battery. Refer also to
page 37.<
2 Spare key for storage in a safe place, such as in your wallet. This key is not
intended for continuous use.
463de023
3 Door and ignition keyThe lock for the glove compartment
cannot be operated with this key.
This is recommended for valet
parking, for instance. Replacement keys
Replacement keys are available exclu-
sively through your BMW center. Since
the keys belong to a security system,
your BMW center is obligated to ensure
that a person requesting a key is autho-
rized to do so (refer to "Electronic
vehicle immobilizer" on the following
page).
If possible, take all of the master
keys that belong to the vehicle
with you when you pick up your
replacement key.
Whenever you receive a new replace-
ment key, turn that key to position 2 in
the ignition lock once (ignition switched
on) and then back. This allows the elec-
tronic vehicle immobilizer to "learn" the
new key. <

Overview
37nOpening and closing – from the outside
Using the remote control
The remote control offers you optimal
convenience in using your vehicle's
locking system while also providing
three exclusive supplementary features:
>Switch on the interior lamps, refer to
page 38.
With this function, you can also
"search for" your vehicle — when
parked in an underground garage, for
instance.
> Open the liftgate, refer to page 39.
The liftgate will open slightly, regard-
less of whether it was previously
locked or unlocked.
> Panic mode
In case of danger, you can trigger an
alarm.
When the vehicle is unlocked, the anti-
theft protection is deactivated and the
alarm system is disarmed; when the
vehicle is locked, the systems are acti-
vated or armed.
The interior lamps are switched on
when the vehicle is unlocked.
You can have an acknowledgment
signal set to confirm that the
vehicle is correctly closed. <
Master keys
Keys with remote control are master
keys. Refer to page 34.
Children might be able to lock the
doors from the inside. For this
reason, always take the vehicle's keys
with you so that the vehicle can be
opened again from the outside at any
time. <
530us011
Master keys that are used repeat-
edly are always ready for opera-
tion since the battery in the key is
charged automatically in the ignition
lock as you drive.
If it is no longer possible to lock the
vehicle via the remote control, the
battery is discharged. Use this key
while driving for an extended period in
order to charge the battery. Refer also
to page 34.
To prevent unauthorized use of the
remote control, surrender only the door
and ignition key 3 or the spare key 2
(refer to page 34) when leaving the
vehicle for valet parking, for example.
In the event of a system malfunction,
please contact your BMW center. You
can also obtain replacement keys
there. <

Lamps and bulbsThe lamps and bulbs are essential
factors contributing to the safety of your
vehicle. For this reason, follow the
instructions below carefully when
replacing a bulb. If you are not familiar
with any of the procedures, consult
your BMW center.
Do not touch the glass portion of a
new bulb with your bare hands
since even small amounts of impurities
burn into the surface and reduce the
service life of the bulb. Use a clean
cloth, paper napkin, or a similar mate-
rial, or hold the bulb by its metallic
base.<
A replacement bulb set is available from
your BMW center.
Whenever working on the elec-
trical system, switch off the elec-
trical accessory you are working on or
disconnect the cable from the negative
terminal of the battery. Failure to do this
could result in short circuits.
To prevent injuries and damage,
comply with any instructions provided
by the bulb manufacturer.<
The illustration shows the right-hand
engine compartment.
For checking and adjusting head-
lamp aim, please contact your
BMW center.< 1 Low beams H7 bulb, 55 watts

use abrasives or strong solvents to
clean the covers.
>Remove dirt and contamination (such
as insects) by soaking with BMW Car
Shampoo and then rinsing with plenty
of water.
>Always use a deicer spray to remove
accumulated ice and snow – never
use a scraper.<
