vehicle's systems in such a

manner that your personalized settings
are automatically called up for the seat,
mirror and steering wheel positions

personal remote control key.

you make use of the Key Memory,

be sure that the footwell behind

the driver's seat is unobstructed before
unlocking the vehicle. If you fail to do
so, persons or objects could be injured
or damaged if the seat should move

How the system functions

You have probably frequently wished
that you could configure individual
functions of your vehicles to reflect your
own personal requirements. In engi-
neering your vehicle, BMW has
included several user-defined func-
tions in the vehicle's design. Your BMW
center can make these settings for you.

There are settings related to the vehicle
("Car Memory") and settings related to
individuals ("Key Memory"). You can
configure up to four different basic
positions for four different persons. The
only requirement is that each person
uses his or her own remote control key.

When your vehicle is unlocked with the
remote control, the vehicle recognizes
the individual user by means of a data
exchange with the key, and makes
adjustments accordingly.

In order for you to distinguish between
different keys, colored decals are
supplied together with the keys.

What the system can do

Your BMW center can provide you with
details on the capabilities of the "Car
Memory" and "Key Memory" systems.
