Replacement keysare available exclusively through your
BMW center. Your BMW center is obli-
gated to ensure that a person
requesting a key is authorized to do so
since the keys belong to a security
system (refer to "Electronic vehicle
immobilizer" on the next page).
If possible, take all master keys
that belong to the vehicle with you
when you pick up your replacement
keys.
Whenever you receive a new
replacement key, turn that key to
position 2 in the ignition lock once (igni-
tion switched on) and then back. This
allows the electronic vehicle immobi-
lizer to "learn" the new key.<
New master key with remote control,
refer to page 144.

The central locking system can be
operated
>from outside via the door locks, the

The anti-theft system is automatically
activated whenever you activate the
central locking system from outside the
vehicle. It prevents the doors from
being unlocked with the lock buttons or
release handles.
The central locking system unlocks
automatically in the event of an acci-
dent. In addition, the hazard warning
flashers and interior lamps come on.

be closed via the door locks:
When the doors are closed, hold the
key in the "Lock" position.367de011

fully and be sure that no one is
trapped by the closing motion. The
closing process stops immediately
when you release the key.<
