EWS Electronic
immobilizer
The motorcycle's electronic
circuitry monitors the data stored
in the ignition key through
a ring antenna incorporated
in the steering and ignition
lock. The engine management
system does not enable engine
starting until this key has been
recognized as "authorized" for
your motorcycle.
NOTICE
If a further key for the vehicle
is attached to the same ring as
the ignition key and used to start
the engine, this could impair the
electronics and prevent the en-
gine start signal from being is-
sued. The warning with the key
symbol appears in the multifunc-
tion display.
Always store further vehicle keys
separately from the ignition key.
If you lose one of your motorcy-
cle keys, you can have it disabled
by your authorized BMW motor-
cycle retailer.
When having a key disabled you
should also bring all of the mo-
torcycle's remaining keys with
you. The engine can no longer
be started using a disabled key;
however, a disabled key can be
enabled again.
Emergency and spare keys are
only available through an autho-
rized BMW Motorrad retailer.
The keys are part of an inte-
grated security system, so the
retailer is under an obligation to
check the legitimacy of all ap-
plications for replacement/extra
keys.
