INTEGRATED UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL
*
The conceptThe integrated universal remote control
takes the place of up to three different con
-
trol devices for different radio-remote-con
-
trolled systems such as gate openers and
household alarm systems. The integrated
universal remote control detects and learns
the signal transmitted by the original con
-
trol device.The signal of an original control device can
be programmed onto one of the three
memory buttons
1. The system in question
can then be operated by means of the pro
-
grammed memory button
1. Signal trans
-
mission is indicated by indicator lamp
2.
If you decide to sell your vehicle one day, in
the interest of your own security, remem
-
ber to delete the programs before the vehi
-
cle leaves your possession, refer to page
84.
While programming is in progress and before operating any pro
-
grammed system by remote control using
the integrated universal remote control,
make sure that the movement area of the
system in question is clear of people, ani
-
mals and inanimate obstructions, in order
to avoid possible injury or damage. Also
comply with the safety precautions issued
for the original control device.<
Checking compatibility
If this symbol is depicted on the packaging or in the operating
instructions of the original control
device, it is safe to assume that the remote-
controlled system is compatible with the
integrated universal remote control.If you have additional questions, please consult your MINI center or
call 1-800-355-3515.

original control devices. The corresponding memory button
1 is
now programmed with the signal of the
original control device.
The system can be operated as soon as the
ignition is switched on.
If the system cannot be operated after repeated attempts at program

press and hold down the programmed
memory button
1 of the integrated univer
-
sal remote control. If indicator lamp
2 of
the integrated universal remote control
flashes rapidly for a brief period and then
remains on for approx. two seconds, the
original control device is equipped with an
alternating-code system. In this case, the
memory buttons
1 are programmed as
described for an alternating-code control
device.<
Alternating-code control deviceYou will need to refer to the operating
instructions of the system in question in
order to program the integrated universal
remote control. Read through the operat
-
ing instructions for information on syn
-
chronization.

Observe the following additional instruc
-
tions when you program an alternating-
code control device:
You will find programming easier if you have the assistance of a second
person.<
1. Park your vehicle within range of the
