Voice command system
26
Adjusting volume
You can adjust the volume for the instructions
from the voice command system:
Turn the knob during an instruction/announce-
ment to select the desired volume.
Instructions/announcements from the voice
command system will continue at this volume
level, even if the other audio sources are set to
minimum volume.
The volume setting is stored for the remote
control currently in use.
Notes
Do not use the voice command system to
make emergency calls. Your voice and
habitual tone could be affected by stressful sit-
uations, as a result of which the process of
establishing the telephone connection could be
unnecessarily delayed. Instead, use the emer-
gency call button near the interior rearview mir-
ror, refer to page218.<
Environmental conditions
The voice command system uses a special
hands-free microphone located in the front of
your vehicle's headliner. Although the system is
designed to filter out ambient noise, you can
help ensure that your commands will be under-
stood by observing the following instructions:
>Speak smoothly and clearly, at a normal vol-
ume. Avoid excessive emphasis and
pauses.
>Do not speak while the voice command sys-
tem is itself speaking.>Keep the doors, windows and glass sunroof
closed to prevent interference from ambi-
ent noise.
>Avoid other sources of noise in the vehicle
while speaking, and ask other vehicle occu-
pants to refrain from talking while you are
using the system.
>The hands-free microphone is aimed
toward the driver. This means that the sys-
tem might not be able to register the voices
of other vehicle occupants properly.
The notepad
Recording a note
You can store roughly ten minutes of spoken
text, either as a single entry or as multiple
entries of any desired length.
To stop recording:
Maintain pressure on the button for several
seconds.
When recording a note, the voice com-
mand system does not hear the com-
mand {Cancel} or {Exit}. The text checking
function for command words is deactivated in
this case so that you can speak any desired text
for your notes. This feature saves you from hav-
ing to concentrate on avoiding any command
words.<
Listening to a notepad entry
To listen to recorded notepad entries:
{Record note}.
1.{Read out}.
Approximately the first 3 seconds of
the first note are read aloud.
2.After the request {{Record note, read
out note, delete note.}} select the
desired function.
>To listen to the entire note:
{Read out}.
>To listen to the next note: {Next}.
>To listen to the note again:
{Back} or {Repeat}.

refer to page212
Remote control with integrated key
Each remote control contains a battery which is
automatically charged in the ignition lock while
driving. Use each remote control for an
extended drive at least twice a year to keep the
battery charged. For Comfort Access
*, the
remote control contains a replaceable battery,
refer to page39.
Depending on which remote control is detected
by the vehicle during unlocking, different set-
tings are called up and carried out in the vehicle,
refer to Key Memory on page31.
Information on the required maintenance is also
stored in the remote control, refer to CBS Con-
dition Based Service, page210.
Integrated key
Press button1 to release the key.
You can use the integrated key to lock and
unlock the following:
>the storage compartment under the front
armrest
>the driver's door
>the luggage compartment lid
Inside the storage compartment, you will also
find the switch for locking the luggage compart-
ment lid separately, refer to page35.
If you then lock the storage compartment under
the center armrest, refer to page114, and only
surrender the remote control, this will prevent
unauthorized access to the vehicle through the
luggage compartment lid. This is an advantage
in a hotel, for example.
New remote controls
New remote controls, additional or when lost,
can be obtained from your BMW center.
Spare key
Store the spare key in a safe place such as your
wallet. This key is not intended for constant
use.
The spare key and integrated key fit the same
locks.

Adapter for spare key
You will need the adapter to activate the ignition
and to start the vehicle with the spare key.
Take the adapter from the Onboard tool kit,
refer to page212.
Press lock button1, slide the cover open and
insert the spare key2 into the adapter. Close
the cover and insert the adapter into the ignition
lock.
Key Memory
The concept
You can set a number of functions of your BMW
individually according to your preferences. Key
Memory ensures that most of these settings are
stored for the remote control currently in use
without you having to do anything. When the
vehicle is unlocked, the corresponding remote
control is detected and the settings stored for it
are called up and carried out.
This means that your BMW will return to your
personal settings even if it has in the meantime
been driven by another person with his/her own
remote control and settings. The individual set-
tings are stored for a maximum of four remote
controls.

Central locking system
The concept
The central locking system is ready for opera-
tion whenever the driver's door is closed. This
simultaneously engages and releases the locks
on the following:
>Doors
>Luggage compartment lid
>Fuel filler door

Opening and closing
32 The central locking system can be operated
from the outside:
>via the remote control
>via the driver's door lock
>with Comfort Access
* via the door handles
and from inside via the button for the central
locking system.
When the system is locked from inside, the fuel
filler door remains unlocked. Refer to page34.
Each time the central locking system is locked
or unlocked from outside the vehicle, this simul-
taneously engages or disengages the anti-theft
system. The alarm system is also armed or dis-
armed. The remote control also switches the
interior lamps on and off.
For additional details on alarm system
refer to
page37.
In an accident of corresponding severity, the
central locking system automatically unlocks
the vehicle. In addition, the hazard warning
flashers and interior lamps switch on.

outside
Using remote control
Persons or animals left unattended in a
parked vehicle can lock the doors from
the inside. For this reason, bring the remote
control with you whenever you leave the vehicle
so that you will always be able to unlock the
vehicle from outside.<
