Start a BMW (With Comfort Access)

You might think that starting a car is easy, until you approach a 2002-up BMW with the Comfort Access system. Don't worry, it's easy once you first start one up. Here's the instructions on how to do so.

Edit Steps

  1. 1
    Unlock your BMW by pressing the top button on the Comfort Access remote control. The car will beep two or three times, depending on the model or type.
  2. 2
    Once the door locks click, the car is unlocked. Grasp the driver's door handle and pull it to open the door.
  3. 3
    Place the Comfort Access key in the upright position (gray buttons facing up) into the ignition until the dash screen lights and the radio readiness switches on.
  4. 4
    With your foot on the brake, depress the Start/Stop button once to start the car.
  5. 5
    To stop the car, depress the Start/Stop button once.
  6. 6
    Push in on the Comfort Access remote controller and pull out on it to remove it.
  7. 7
    Press the lock button (BMW symbol) once to lock the whole car.

Edit Tips

  • DO NOT pull directly out on the Comfort Access remote to remove it. This will damage the controller.
  • DO NOT hold in the start/stop button, as this will erase key codes, and you will have to have the dealership reset them.
  • DO NOT lock the BMW with passengers or yourself locked inside it. They or you will set off the motion sensors, causing the alarm system to go off.
  • DO NOT place your hand on the door handles before the door locks click. Then you will have to start the whole process all over once again.
