Car Access System: Notes
The Car Access System used in the F10 is the fourth generation of the control unit and the same type as in the F01. The Comfort Access functions are completely integrated into the Car Access System.
All F10 models are equipped with "Passive Go" (drive authorization system) as standard equipment. Drive authorization allows the driver to start the engine without actively using the ID transmitter. Due to the drive authorization (Passive Go), the vehicle does not require any key insertion slot. The ID transmitter only needs to be somewhere inside the passenger compartment for the engine to be started.
The ID transmitter has a battery with a service life of approximately four years.
Up to eight ID transmitters can be used for a particular vehicle.
