Hazard Warning Flashers - BMW R 1200 ST Rider's Manual

In-key electronics
4
An electronic component is
integrated into each of your
44
keys. The motorcycle's elec-
tronics exchange certain con-
tinuously changing signals
with the electronics in the
key; these signals are spe-
cific to your motorcycle and
they are transmitted via the
ring aerial in the ignition lock.
The ignition is not enabled for
z
starting until the key has been
recognised as "authorised" for
your motorcycle.
A spare 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 starting is
not issued. The
appears in the multifunction
display.
Always keep the spare key
separately from the ignition
key.
Replacement and extra
keys
You can obtain replace-
ment/extra keys only through
an authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer. The keys are part
of an integrated security
system, so the dealer is under
an obligation to check the
legitimacy of all applications
for replacement/extra keys. If
you want to have a lost key
barred, you have to bring with
you all the other keys that
belong to the motorcycle. A
key that has been barred can
subsequently be cleared and
reactivated for use.
