Car Memory, Key Memory
How it works
You may often have wished that you
could modify the operation of certain
features of your car to suit your own
individual preferences. When develop-
ing the car, BMW therefore incorpo-
rated a number of freely programmable
options into the car, which
BMW Service will be happy to set in
accordance with your preferences.
There are Car Memory and Key Memory
settings, the former relating to the car
itself, the latter to your personal
requirements. You can have up to four
sets of basic settings programmed in
for the use of four different persons.
This presupposes that each person has
his or her own remote control key.
By means of data exchange with the
key, the car identifies the user when the
car is unlocked and selects the pre-
ferred settings.
For identification purposes
Coloured adhesive labels are supplied
with the keys so that you can identify
the individual master keys with remote-
control functionality.
What can be selected
BMW Service will gladly inform you of
the facilities available with Car Memory
and Key Memory.
At the appropriate points in this
Owner's Handbook you will find
this symbol, as an indication that spe-
cial settings as described here are
available.
