EWS Electronic
immobilizer
The motorcycle's electronic cir-
cuitry monitors the data stored
in the ignition key through a ring
antenna incorporated in the igni-
tion lock. The engine manage-
ment system does not enable
engine starting until the vehicle
key has been recognized as "au-
thorized" for your motorcycle.
NOTICE
A further key attached to the
same ring as the ignition key
used to start the engine could
"irritate" the electronics, in which
case the enabling signal for start-
ing is not issued. The warning
is displayed in the multifunction
display with the key symbol.
Always store further vehicle keys
separately from the ignition key.
If you lose an ignition key, you
can have it disabled by your
BMW Motorrad partner. When
having a key disabled you should
also bring all of the motorcycle's
remaining keys with you.
The engine can no longer be
started using a disabled vehicle
key; however, a disabled vehicle
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
vehicle keys.
