How the BMW Display Key Works

Model: BMW BMW Various
Part: Key

Learn how the BMW display key works: it has the standard key functions, so pressing the BMW symbol locks the car and pressing the padlock unlocks it. Pressing the boot symbol opens the rear hatch, while pressing it for a long time closes it. On the right, there is a multifunction button that can be configured from inside, perhaps assigning it the function to turn on the headlights for 40 seconds. The display key allows you to locate the vehicle up to a maximum distance of 100 metres, and see if it is open or closed, and whether the windows are open or closed. You can adjust the height, check if the headlights are on or off, perform a check, view the range, and set a timer to start the air conditioning. This display key can be wirelessly charged from inside the vehicle or via USB. On the side, there is the on/off switch for the key.
