However, the latest smart key's remote parking control may be the most impressive. It works by allowing the driver to remotely start and park their vehicle even while standing outside. It could be useful in parking spaces where the car is too big to leave it or to utilize a standard key fob. The system is easy to set up, though there are some variations based on the kind of BMW you own. If your car has a push button start, you will need an existing key fob, which you can program into the app. If you have a BMW Digital Key Plus model from 2021 or later you can open the door of your vehicle by securing your phone to the door handle, just like you would use a normal key. You can set the temperature of the interior with both types of BMW by using the remote start feature. This can help to keep the temperature of the vehicle at a comfortable level when you're driving, and it's a great way to prepare your vehicle for long journeys. BMW's app lets you select the desired climate settings from the comfort of your home and then start the car. The smart key sends the necessary commands to your vehicle, which will then activate the fan and start heating or cooling the interior. Like you'd expect from a device that's designed to replace smartphones, the BMW display key comes with a touch screen to operate and provides a wealth of information about your vehicle. You can see the status of the sunroofs, windows doors, alarm systems. You can also view the battery requirements, service requirements, level, and any key functions which require attention. The display key can be charged as a normal phone. Its USB port can be used to charge compatible mobile phones and has a light indicator that displays charging status (Blue=Charging and orange is not charging) as well as fault messages. Driver Profiles If you're looking for a further layer of security, you can program your BMW with the key fob which will alert you when anyone is trying to get into the vehicle without your permission. This feature can be used to lock your windows and sunroof. This technology is beneficial for you since it helps you prevent theft and conserve fuel. You can even activate the BMW remote parking feature with just a single press of your key fob. This is great for people who live in cities where parking can be a nightmare. It will allow you to park your car in a tight space and not have to worry about another driver accidentally slamming their door into yours. But, it's not a perfect solution. There is still the possibility of someone crashing their door into yours when you're not in your car. G28 Car Keys Solutions comes with an inbuilt screen that can provide you with an abundance of information regarding the state of your car. In addition to the usual functions of a remote, it can show you security information, door and window status, as well as future maintenance requirements on its 2.2-inch screen. You can also view your current fuel level and battery electric range so you'll know when you need to stop to buy gas. If you want to share your BMW, you can create different profiles for each driver. Your car will detect who's driving and adjust its settings to suit, including steering wheel position, seat position, lighting, and climate control. You can also set restrictions for teenagers, including top speed limits and a volume control for the radio. Key fobs are shared with five other users. However they must be using a compatible smartphone and the BMW Connected application installed. You can import profiles from your smartphone or create a guest account for a person who wants to borrow the car. This is just one of the clever features that your BMW can provide. There's more to learn about! Battery Replacement If the batteries in your BMW fob run down you might be wondering, “Can I change the battery on a BMW key fob?”. The answer is contingent on the type of key fob you own. The older diamond-shaped BMW fobs, for instance are not made to be used for battery replacement. They are glued to the backplate and prying off the backplate will likely cause some damage to the fob. However, newer fobs can have their batteries replaced by simply opening the fob and replacing the CR2450 or CR2032 battery. You can remove the metal valet keys from the most popular smart key models (1 3, 5, 7, and X) by pressing the small tab. Then, you can open the access port by using the help of a screwdriver. This should reveal a small groove in the port opening. The valet key can be removed using the tool to pull the tab into and push it. Replace the battery, and then replace the cover. You will need to use another method if you have a Display key with touchscreen. While the Display Key is water resistant, it is not as water-proof as the standard key fob, so you must be cautious about the risk of exposing it to too much moisture. It can survive even a trip through the washer, but it is best to treat it as a smartphone. Don't be concerned about rain as long as it stays away from water. If you lose your smart key and are concerned that it will be stolen our service technicians will also disable the fob so that it can't be used to unlock or start your car. Contact us if the fob requires repair.
