Vehicle Memory, Key Memory - BMW Z4 ROADSTER 2.5I-2003 Owner's Manual

Vehicle 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 engineering your vehicle,
BMW has incorporated a number of
options for personal adjustment that can be
programmed into your vehicle at your BMW
center.
The available configuration data fall into
two categories, according to whether their
primary orientation is the vehicle – Vehicle
Memory, or the individual – Key Memory.
You can have up to four different basic set-
tings 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 adjust-
ments accordingly.
Colored decals were provided with the
keys to help you distinguish between the
different personal remote control keys.
