A further key attached to
the same ring as the igni-
tion key used to start the engine
could "irritate" the electronics,
in which case the enabling sig-
nal for starting is not issued. The
warning with the key symbol ap-
pears in the multifunction display.
Always store further vehicle keys
separately from the ignition key.
If you lose one of your motorcy-
cle keys, you can have it disabled
by your authorized BMW motor-
cycle retailer.
When having a key disabled you
should also bring all of the mo-
torcycle's remaining keys with
you. The engine can no longer
be started using a disabled key;
however, a disabled key can be
enabled again.
Emergency and spare keys are
only available through an autho-
rized BMW Motorrad retailer.
The keys are part of an inte-
grated security system, so the
retailer is under an obligation to
check the legitimacy of all ap-
plications for replacement/extra
keys.

The indicator light for the
radio-operated key flashes
as long as the radio-operated key
is being searched for.
If the radio-operated key or the
emergency key is detected, it
goes out.
If the radio-operated key or the
emergency key is not detected, it
lights up briefly.
You are provided with one radio-
operated key and one emergency
key. Should you lose your keys,
refer to the information regard-
ing the electronic immobilizer
(EWS) (
45).
The ignition, tank filler cap and
anti-theft alarm system are con-
trolled with the radio-operated
key. The seat lock, Topcase and
case can be operated manually.
When the range of the
radio-operated key is ex-
ceeded (e.g. in case or Topcase),
the motorcycle cannot be started
and the central locking system
cannot be locked/unlocked.
If the range is exceeded, the igni-
tion is switched off after approx.
1.5 minutes and the central lock-
ing system is
not locked.
It is advisable to carry the radio-
operated key directly on your
person (e.g. in a jacket pocket)
and to also carry the emergency
key as an alternative.
