Car Memory, Key Memory - BMW 2001 325CI Manual

Car Memory, Key Memory

How the system functions
You have probably frequently wished
that you could configure individual
functions of your vehicle 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
in accordance with your wishes.
There are settings related to the vehicle
("Car Memory") and settings related to
individuals ("Key Memory"). You can
have up to four different basic settings
adjusted 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.
A few examples follow below:
Examples for Car Memory:
> Various signals used as acknowl-
edgement when locking or unlocking
your vehicle.
> Deactivating/activating the Follow-
Me-Home lamps function.
> Activating/deactivating daytime
*
running lamps .
Examples for Key Memory:
> Automatic adjustment of the driver's
power seat.
> Locking your vehicle after starting off.
> When unlocking your vehicle, first
unlock the driver's door, then the rest
of the vehicle.
You will see this symbol
throughout the Owner's Manual. It
is to remind you at appropriate places
of the settings that are available to
you.<
