Keys/remote control
Each remote control contains a battery which is
automatically charged in the ignition lock while
driving. Drive a longer distance with each
remote control at least tw ice a year to keep the
battery charged. For comfort access
*, the
remote control contains a replaceable battery,
refer to page 41.
Depending on which remote control is detected
by the vehicle during unlocking, different set-
tings are called up and carr ied out in the vehicle,
refer to Personal Profile, page 28.
Information on the requir ed maintenance is also
stored in the remote co ntrol, refer to Service
data in remote control, page 263.
Integrated key
Press button 1 to unlock the key.
The integrated key fits the following locks:
> Driver's door, refer to page 32
> Floor panel flap in cargo bay, refer to
page 132
New remote controls
To obtain additional or replace lost keys, new
remote controls with an integrated key are
available at your BMW Sp orts Activity Vehicle

Personal Profile
The concept
You can set a number of functions of your BMW
individually according to your preferences. Per-
sonal Profile ensures that most of these set-
tings 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 dete cted and the settings
stored for it are called up and carried out.
This means that you will always find your BMW
set to your own personal settings even if
another person with his/ her own remote control
and settings has used the vehicle since the last
time you drove it. The individual settings are
stored for a maximum of four remote controls,
for two with comfort access
*.
