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 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 three remote controls.
Personal Profile settings
Details on the settings are provided on the
specified pages.

either unlock only the driver's door or the
entire vehicle, refer to page
30
> Locking the vehicle after a short time or

the steering wheel, refer to page 53
