Integrated universal remote
control*
The concept
The integrated universal remote control
replaces up to three different hand-held
transmitters for various items of radio-con-
trolled equipment such as door openers
and house alarm systems. The integrated
universal remote control registers and
stores signals from the original hand-held
transmitters.
The signal of an original hand-held trans-
mitter can be programmed on one of the
three memory buttons 1. Then the respec-
tive device can be actuated with the mem-
ory button 1 programmed for its use with
the ignition key in position 2. The indicator
lamp 2 flashes to confirm transmission of
the signal.
If you sell your vehicle one day, delete the
saved programs beforehand for your own
security, refer to page 95.
To prevent possible damage or injury,
before programming or using the inte-
grated universal remote control, always
inspect the immediate area to make certain
that no people, animals or objects are
within the travel range of the device. Also,
comply with the safety precautions of the
original hand-held transmitter.<
Checking compatibility
If you see this symbol on the pack-
aging or in the manual supplied with
the original hand-held transmitter, it
is safe to assume that it is compatible with
the integrated universal remote control.
If you have additional questions, please
consult your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle
Center or call 1-800-355-3515.

Programming
1Memory buttons
2Indicator lamp
Fixed-code hand-held transmitters
1.Ignition key in position 2
2.When using for the first time: press both
outer buttons 1 for approx. 20 seconds,
maintaining pressure until the indicator
lamp 2 starts to flash. The three mem-
ory buttons 1 are cleared
3.Hold the original hand-held transmitter
at a distance of approx. 2 in/5 cm to
8 in/20 cm to the memory buttons 1
The required distance between
the hand-held transmitter and the
memory buttons 1 depends on the rele-
vant system of the original hand-held
transmitter used.<
4.Simultaneously press the transmit but-
ton on the original hand-held transmit-
ter and the desired memory button 1 on
the integrated universal remote control.
Initially, the indicator lamp 2 flashes
slowly. Release both buttons as soon
as the indicator lamp 2 flashes rapidly.
If the indicator lamp 2 does not flash
rapidly after approx. 15 seconds,
change the distance
5.To program other original hand-held
transmitters, repeat steps 3 and 4.

The corresponding memory button 1 is
now programmed with the signal of the
original hand-held transmitter.
The equipment can be used in ignition key
position 2.
If the device cannot be operated after
repeated programming, check
whether the original hand-held transmitter
uses an alternating-code system. Here,
either read the instructions for the original
hand-held transmitter or hold down the
programmed memory button 1 of the inte-
grated universal remote control. If the indi-
cator lamp 2 on the integrated universal
remote control flashes rapidly for a short
time then lights up for approx. 2 seconds,
this indicates that the original hand-held
transmitter uses an alternating-code sys-
tem. In the case of an alternating-code sys-
tem, program the memory buttons 1 as
described at Alternating-code hand-held
transmitters.<
Alternating-code hand-held
transmitters
To program the integrated universal remote
control, consult the Operating Instructions
for the equipment to be set. You will find
information there on the possibilities for
synchronization.
When programming hand-held transmitters
that employ an alternating code, please
observe the following supplementary
instructions:
Programming will be easier with the
aid of a second person.<
1.Park your vehicle within the range of the
remote-controlled equipment
2.Program the integrated universal
remote control as described above at
Fixed-code hand-held transmitters
3.Locate the button at the receiver of the
equipment to be set, e.g. on the drive
4.Press the button on the receiver of the
equipment to be set. After step 4, you
have approx. 30 seconds for step 55.Press the programmed memory
button 1 of the integrated universal
remote control three times.
The corresponding memory button 1 is
now programmed with the signal of the
original hand-held transmitter.
If you have any additional questions,
please contact your BMW center.<
Clearing memory buttons
Press both outer buttons 1 of the inte-
grated universal remote control for approx.
20 seconds, maintaining pressure until the
indicator lamp 2 starts to flash. All three
memory buttons are cleared.
The memory of individual memory but-
tons 1 cannot be cleared.
Glove compartment
Opening
Press button. The glove compartment
opens automatically and the lamps come
on.
Closing
Fold the cover up.
To prevent injury in the event of an
accident while the vehicle is being
driven, close the glove compartment
immediately after use.<
Rechargeable flashlight*
The flashlight is located on the left side of
the glove compartment.
The flashlight can remain there continu-
ously.
