Keys Central locking system The key set 1 Each master key with remote control
contains a long-life battery as power
supply, which is automatically
recharged in the ignition lock while
driving. It is therefore necessary to
use each master key at least twice
per year in order to maintain the
charge. Depending on which master
key the vehicle detects during
unlocking, different settings will be
requested and executed in the vehi-
cle, refer to Vehicle and Key memory
on page63.530de367
2 Spare key for storage in a safe place,
such as in your wallet.
This key does not fit in the lock of the
glove compartment. This is an advan-
tage in a hotel, for example. The key
is not intended for continuous use.Replacement keys Additional or replacement keys are
available at your BMW Sports Activity
Vehicle center.
The concept The central locking system is ready for
operation as soon as you close the front
doors. The system engages or releases
the locks on the
>doors
>liftgate/tailgate
>fuel filler door.
The central locking system can be
operated
>from outside via the remote control
as well as via the driver's door lock
>from inside via the button for the cen-
tral locking system.
If the system is locked from inside, the
fuel filler door remains unlocked, refer
to page34.
When the system is actuated from out-
side of the vehicle, the anti-theft system
is actuated simultaneously. This pre-
vents the doors from being unlocked via
lock buttons or door handles. The alarm
system is also armed or disarmed.
In an accident of sufficient severity the
central locking system automatically
unlocks, but only doors which have not
been locked separately with the lock
buttons, refer to page34. In addition,
the hazard warning flashers and the
interior lamps are switched on.
