OverviewControlsMaintenanceRepairsDataIndex
The concept The integrated universal remote control
can replace as many as three hand-
held transmitters for various remote-
controlled accessories, such as door
openers and house alarm systems.
The integrated universal remote control
recognizes and learns the transmitted
signal of each of the original hand-held
transmitters.
The signal of an original hand-held
transmitter can be programmed on one
of the three memory buttons 1. Follow-
ing that, each of the devices can be
actuated with the appropriately-pro-
grammed memory button 1. The indica-
tor lamp 2 flashes to confirm transmis-
sion of the signal.
Should you sell your vehicle one day,
be sure to delete the stored programs
beforehand for your safety, refer to
page119. To prevent possible damage or
injury, before programming or
using the integrated universal remote
control, always inspect the immediate
area to make certain that no people,
animals or objects are within the travel
range of the device. Also, comply with
the safety precautions of the original
hand-held transmitter.<
To Canadian residents:
During programming, your hand-
held transmitter may automatically stop
transmitting after two seconds, which
may not be long enough to program the
integrated universal remote control. If
you are programming from one of these
hand-held transmitters, the integrated
universal remote control's light may
begin to flash in a series of double-
blinks. If this occurs, continue to hold
the button of the integrated universal
remote control while you reactivate
your hand-held transmitter. You may
have to repeat this function several
times while programming.<
Checking compatibility
If you see this symbol on the
packaging or in the manual sup-
plied with the original hand-held
transmitter, it is safe to assume that it is
compatible with the integrated universal
remote control.
A list of compatible hand transmitters
is available via fax polling by calling
+49 (0)6838 907283 3333. For details,
please call the toll-free HomeLink Hot-
line at +49 (0)6838 907 277 or 0800
0466 35465 in Germany.

Programming 1 Memory buttons
2 Indicator lampFixed-code hand-held transmitter1. Switch on the ignition
2. For initial use: press both outer but-
tons 1 for approx. 20 seconds, main-
taining pressure until the indicator
lamp 2 starts to flash. The three
memory buttons 1 are cleared
3. Hold the original hand-held transmit-
ter at a distance of approx. 2 to 8 in/
5 to 20 cm from the memory but-
tons 1
The required distance between
the hand-held transmitter and
memory buttons 1 depends on the 530us247
relevant system of the original hand-
held transmitter used.<
4. Simultaneously press the transmit
button on the original hand-held
transmitter and the desired memory
button 1 of the integrated universal
remote control. Initially, the indicator
lamp 2 flashes slowly. Release both
buttons as soon as the indicator
lamp 2 flashes rapidly If the indicator
lamp 2 does not flash rapidly after
approx. 15 seconds, change the dis-
tance
5. To program other original hand-held
transmitters, repeat steps 3 and 4.
The corresponding memory button 1 is
now programmed with the signal of the
original hand-held transmitter.
You can operate the system when the
engine is running or when the ignition is
switched on.
If the system cannot be operated
after repeated programming,
check whether the original hand-held
transmitter uses an alternating-code
system. To do so, either read the
instructions of the original hand-held
transmitter or press and hold down the
programmed memory button 1 of the
integrated universal remote control.
If the indicator lamp 2 on the integrated
universal remote control flashes quickly
for a brief period and then remains lit up
for approx. two seconds, this indicates
that the original hand-held transmitter is
equipped with an alternating code. In
the case of an alternating-code system,
program the memory buttons 1 as
described at the section on alternating-
code hand-held transmitters.
If you have additional questions, please
consult your BMW Sports Activity Vehi-
cle center or call 1-800-355-3515.
You can also visit this website
www.bmwusa.com transmitterTo program the integrated universal
remote control, consult the Owner's
Manuals for the equipment to be set.
You will find information there on the
possibilities for synchronization.
When programming alernating-code
hand-held transmitters, please observe
the following supplementary instruc-
tions:
Programming will be easier with
the aid of a second person.<
