Car Memory, Key Memory
Your BMW center can adjust your
vehicle's systems in such a man-
ner that your personalized settings are
automatically called up for the seat,
mirror and steering wheel positions
when you unlock the vehicle with your
personal remote control.<
If you make use of the Key Mem-
ory, 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 backward.<
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 in-
cluded several user-defined functions
in the vehicle's design. Your authorized
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 po-
sitions 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 ad-
justments accordingly.
In order for you to distinguish between
different keys, colored decals are sup-
plied together with the keys.
What the system can do
Your authorized BMW center can pro-
vide you with details on the capabilities
of the Car Memory and Key Memory
systems.
Memory functions are possible for the
> driver's seat
> steering wheel
> exterior mirrors
> automatic climate control.
You will see this symbol through-
out the Owner's Manual. It is to
remind you at appropriate places of the
settings that are available to you.<
An example of Key Memory is the auto-
matic adjustment of the driver's power
seat with settings stored in the memory
for the individual person when the vehi-
cle is unlocked.
