Personal Profile
Principle
You can set many of your BMW's functions to
suit your personal needs and preferences.
Without any action on your part, Personal Pro-
file ensures that most of these settings are
saved for the remote control currently in use.
When you unlock the car the remote control
used for the purpose is recognised and the set-
tings saved for it are called up and imple-
mented.
This means that your personal settings are
active when you return to your BMW, even if the
car was used in the interim by someone else
with a remote control of their own and the set-
tings were changed accordingly. Individual set-
tings are saved for up to four remote controls.
