hicle interior is assigned to the BMW ID or

Automatic driver recognition
If driver recognition has been established, au-
tomatic activation of the BMW ID or driver pro-
file is triggered by the following actions:
▷ By unlocking the vehicle using the button
on the assigned vehicle key.
▷ By unlocking the vehicle using an external
door handle. The assigned vehicle key or
the assigned Digital Key must be carried
with you.
▷ By automatic unlocking when approaching
the vehicle. The assigned vehicle key or the
assigned Digital Key must be carried with
you. Depending on the country, it may not
be possible to recognize the Digital Key.
If there are several vehicle keys or Digital Keys
in the vicinity of the vehicle, activation of the
BMW ID or driver profile is done according to
the following priority:
▷ The key that unlocks the vehicle triggers
the activation of the assigned BMW ID or
the assigned driver profile.
The guest profile is activated when the ve-
hicle is unlocked using a key that is not as-
signed to a BMW ID or driver profile.
▷ If a vehicle key and a Digital Key are
detected at the same time, the Digital
Key triggers the activation of the assigned
BMW ID or the assigned driver profile.
▷ If another key is detected on the driver's
door after activating the BMW ID or the
driver profile, the BMW ID or the driver pro-
file of the last key detected is activated.
If no BMW ID and no driver profile are as-
signed to this key, the guest profile is acti-
vated.
