Integrated universal remote control
The concept
The integrated universal remote control can replace as many as three hand-held transmitters for various remote-controlled devices, such as garage doors and gates or lighting systems. The integrated universal remote control registers and stores signals from the original hand-held transmitters.
The signal of an original hand-held transmitter can be programmed on one of the three memory buttons 1. After this, the programmed memory button 1 will operate the system in question. The LED 2flashes to confirm transmission of the signal.
Should you sell your vehicle one day, be sure to delete the stored programs beforehand for your safety.
To prevent possible damage or injury, before programming or using the integrated universal remote control, always inspect the immediate area to make certain that no people, animals or objects are within the pivoting or travel range of the device being operated. Comply also with the safety instructions supplied with the original hand-held transmitter.
Checking compatibilityIf this symbol appears on the package or in the instructions supplied with the original hand-held transmitter, you can assume that the radio remote control device is compatible with the integrated universal remote control.

Programming1. Memory buttons
2. LED
Fixed-code hand-held transmitters
1. Switch on the ignition.
2. When starting operation for the first time: press the left and right memory
buttons 1for approx. 20 seconds until the LED 2flashes rapidly. The
three memory buttons are cleared.
3. Hold the original hand-held transmitter at a distance of approx. 1 to 3
in/2.5 to 8 cm from the memory buttons 1.
The required distance between the hand-held transmitter and the memory buttons 1depends on the system of the respective original hand-held transmitter used.
4. Simultaneously press the transmit key on the original hand-held transmitter and the desired memory button 1on the integrated universal remote control. The LED 2flashes slowly at first. As soon as the LED 2flashes rapidly, release both buttons. If the LED 2does not flash rapidly after approx. 60 seconds, alter the distance and repeat this step.
Canada: if the LED 2does not flash rapidly after approx. 60 seconds, alter the distance and repeat this step or, if the programming by means of the hand-held transmitter was interrupted, press and hold the memory button and then press and release the button on the hand-held transmitter several times, holding it for 2 seconds each time.
5. To program other original hand-held transmitters, repeat steps 3 and 4.
The corresponding memory button 1is now programmed with the signal of the original hand-held transmitter.
You can operate the device while the ignition is switched on.
If the device fails to function even after repeated programming, check whether the original hand-held transmitter uses an alternating-code system. To do so, either read the instructions for the original hand-held transmitter or hold down the programmed memory button 1of the integrated universal remote control. If the LED 2on the integrated universal remote control flashes rapidly and then remains lit for about two seconds, the original hand-held transmitter uses an alternating-code system.
If it uses an alternating-code system, program the memory buttons 1as described under Alternating-code hand-held transmitters.
Alternating-code hand-held transmitters
To program the integrated universal remote control, consult the operating instructions for the device 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 device.
2. Program the integrated universal remote control as described above in the
section Fixed-code hand-held transmitters.
3. Locate the button on the receiver of the device to be set, e.g. on the
drive unit.
4. Press the button on the receiver of the device to be set. After step 4,
you have approx. 30 seconds for step 5.
5. Press and hold the programmed memory button 1of the integrated universal
remote control for about 3 seconds.
Repeat this operation, if necessary up to three times.
The corresponding memory button 1is now programmed with the signal of the original hand-held transmitter.
If you have any questions, please contact your BMW center.
Deleting all stored programsPress the left and right memory buttons 1for approx. 20 seconds until the LED 2flashes rapidly: all stored programs are deleted.
Reassigning individual programs1. Hold the original hand-held transmitter at a distance of approx. 1 to 3 in/2.5 to 8 cm from the memory buttons 1.
The required distance between the hand-held transmitter and the memory buttons 1depends on the system of the respective original hand-held transmitter used.
2. Press the desired memory button 1of the integrated universal remote control.
If the LED 2flashes slowly after approx.
20 seconds, press the transmit key of the original hand-held transmitter. Release both buttons as soon as the LED 2flashes rapidly. If the LED 2does not flash rapidly after approx. 60 seconds, alter the distance and repeat this step.
Canada: if the LED 2does not flash rapidly after approx. 60 seconds, alter the distance and repeat this step or, if the programming by means of the hand-held transmitter was interrupted, press and hold the memory button and then press and release the button on the hand-held transmitter several times, holding it for 2 seconds each time.
