BMW Universal Transmitter
Checking for the conversion code To determine whether the original
hand-held transmitter is provided with
a conversion-code system, you may
either read the instructions for the orig-
inal hand-held transmitter or program a
channel key as described on the next
page – left-hand column under
Programming.
Then press and hold the programmed
channel key of the BMW Universal
Transmitter. If the indicator lamp of the
BMW Universal Transmitter flashes for
two seconds and then comes on
steadily, the original hand-held trans-
mitter is provided with a conversion-
code system. With a conversion-code
system, program the channel keys as
described on the next page – right-hand
column under Programming a hand-
held transmitter with conversion code.
If you have additional questions,
please consult your BMW Sports
Activity Vehicle center or call
