The motorcycle's electronic cir-
cuitry monitors the data stored in
the key through a ring antenna
incorporated in the ignition lock.
The engine management system
does not enable engine starting
until the vehicle key has been
recognized as "authorized" for
your motorcycle.
A further 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 further vehicle keys
separately from the ignition key.
If you lose a vehicle 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.
Replacement and spare keys are
only available through an autho-
rized BMW Motorrad dealer. The
keys are part of an integrated se-
curity system, so the retailer is
under an obligation to check the
legitimacy of all applications for
replacement/extra vehicle keys.
