Opening And Closing - BMW 318i Owner's Handbook Manual

Opening and closing

Keys/remote controls
Every remote control contains a rechargeable
battery that is automatically recharged when it
is in the ignition lock while the car is being
driven. Drive a longer distance with each
remote control at least twice annually in order to
maintain battery charge. If your car is fitted with
*
convenient access , the remote control con-
tains a replaceable battery, see page 26.
The settings called up and implemented when
the car is unlocked depend on which remote
control is used to unlock the car, see Personal
Profile, page 16.
In addition, information about service require-
ments is stored in the remote control, see
Service data in the remote control, page 127.

New remote controls
BMW Service can supply new remote controls

Personal Profile
The principle
You can set many of your BMW's functions to
suit your personal needs and preferences.
Without any action on your part, Personal Pro-
file ensures that most of these settings are
saved for the remote control currently in use.
When you unlock the car the remote control
used for the purpose is recognised and the set-
tings saved for it are called up and imple-
mented.
This means that your personal settings will be
activated for you, even if in the meantime your
BMW was used by someone else with another
remote control and the corresponding settings.
Individual settings are saved for up to three
remote controls.
