Controls Controls


This chapter is intended to provide you with information for complete control of your vehicle. Its extensive array of features and accessories, both for driving and for your own safety, comfort and convenience, are described here.


Opening and closing


Keys/remote control


1 Remote control with integrated key 2 Spare key 3 Adapter for spare key, in glove compart-


ment


Remote control with integrated key Each remote control contains a battery which is charged in the ignition lock while driving. Drive a longer distance with each remote control at least twice a year to keep the battery charged. For comfort access*, the remote control con- tains a replaceable battery, refer to page 40. Depending on which remote control is detected by the vehicle during unlocking, different set- tings are activated and executed in the vehicle, refer to Personal Profile, page 29. Information on the required for maintenance is also stored in the remote control, refer to Ser- vice data in remote control, page 235.


Integrated key


The integrated key fits the following locks: > Glove compartment, refer to page 123
> Sports Wagon: floor panel flap in cargo bay,


refer to page 129


> Driver's door, refer to page 32
> Luggage compartment lid, refer to page 33.


New remote controls To obtain additional or replace lost keys, new remote controls with an integrated key are available at your BMW center.


Spare key Store the spare key in a safe place such as your wallet. This key is not intended for regular use. The spare key and integrated key fit the same locks.


Adapter for spare key The adapter is required so that the vehicle can be started with the spare key or radio readiness can be switched on.

Personal Profile


The concept You can set a number of functions of your BMW individually according to your preferences. Personal 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 detected 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.
