Electronic immobilizer
EWS
The motorcycle's electronics
exchange certain continuously
changing signals with the elec-
tronics in the key; these signals
are specific to your motorcycle
and they are transmitted via the
ring antenna in the ignition lock.
The engine management system
does not enable engine starting
until the key has been detected
as "authorized" for your motorcy-
cle.
A spare 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
EWS
warning is shown in the
multifunction display.
Always store the spare key sepa-
rately from the ignition key.
If you lose a key, you can have it
disabled by your BMW Motorrad
partner. For this purpose, you
have to bring along all other keys
that belong to the motorcycle.
The motor can no longer be
started using a disabled key;
however, a disabled key can be
enabled again.
Replacement 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.
