Direct activation is possible at any outside temperature via the "Climate" menu item in the i-Drive, but not in driving mode.
To initialize a new hand transmitter, perform the following operations from inside the vehicle:
- Close all vehicle doors
- Within 5 seconds: Switch ignition lock from terminal "0" to terminal "R" and then back to terminal "0"
- Within 5 seconds: Press OFF button (1) on hand transmitter and with OFF button (1) held down press ON button (2) three times quickly
- Release both buttons. LED (3) on hand transmitter flashes
NOTE:
The vehicle's central locking closes and opens automatically on successful initialization.
The initialization process must be repeated if there is no checkback signal from the central locking system.
