Electronic immobilizer
EWS
The electronics in the motorcycle
determine the data stored in the
ignition key via a ring antenna in
the ignition switch. The engine
management system does not
enable engine starting until the
key has been detected as "au-
thorized" for your motorcycle.
A spare key attached to
the same ring as the igni-
tion key used to start the engine
could "irritate" the electronics,
in which case the enabling sig-
nal for starting is not issued. The
EWS
warning is shown in the
multifunction display.
Always store the spare key sepa-
rately from the ignition key.
If you lose a key, you can have it
disabled by your BMW Motorrad
partner. For this purpose, you
have to bring along all other keys
that belong to the motorcycle.
The motor can no longer be
started using a disabled key;
however, a disabled key can be
enabled again.
Replacement 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.
