The BMW Universal Transmitter re-
places up to three hand-held transmit-
ters of different devices such as 
garage-door openers, alarm systems, 
or door locking systems. The BMW 
Universal Transmitter recognizes and 
"learns" the transmitted signal of each 
of the original hand-held transmitters. 

The signal of an original hand-held 
transmitter can be programmed on one 
of the three channel keys. Following 
that, each of the devices can be actu-
ated with the appropriately-pro-
grammed channel key. The indicator 
lamp flashes to confirm transmission of 
the signal. 

If the vehicle is sold, the memory of the 
channel keys should be cleared as de-
scribed on page 

During programming and before 
every remote actuation of a 

programmed device by the BMW 
Universal Transmitter, check to be sure 
that there are no persons, animals or 
objects within the actuation range of 
the device in order to prevent possible 
injuries or damage. Also, comply with 
the safety precautions of the original 
hand-held transmitter.

To Canadian residents: 
During programming, your hand-

held transmitter may automatically stop 
transmitting after two seconds. This 
may not be long enough to program the 
BMW Universal Transmitter. If you are 
programming from one of these hand-
held transmitters, the Universal Trans-
mitter's light may begin to flash in a 
series of double-blinks. If this occurs, 
continue to hold the button of the Uni-
versal Transmitter while you reactivate 
your hand-held transmitter. You may 
have to repeat this function several 
times while programming.

Before programming, read the 
"User information" section on

If this symbol is present on the 
packaging or in the instructions 
of the original hand-held trans-

mitter, it may be assumed that this 
hand-held transmitter is compatible 
with the BMW Universal Transmitter. 

To determine whether the original 
hand-held transmitter is provided with a 
conversion-code system, you may ei-
ther read the instructions for the origi-
nal hand-held transmitter or program a 
channel key as described on the next 
page (left-hand column under "Pro-
gramming"). 

Then press and hold the programmed 
channel key of the BMW Universal 
Transmitter. If the indicator lamp of the 
BMW Universal Transmitter flashes for 
two seconds and then comes on 
steadily, the original hand-held trans-
mitter is provided with a conversion-
code system. With a conversion-code 
system, program the channel keys as 
described on the next page (right-hand 
column under "Programming a hand-
held transmitter with conversion code"). 

If you have additional questions, 
please consult your BMW center
