Controls and features -> Keys for Your BMW Z3 SUV First Generation (1995-2002)

30nKeys  
Replacement keys  
are available exclusively through your  
BMW center. Your BMW center is obli-  
gated to ensure that a person  
requesting a key is authorized to do so  
since the keys belong to a security  
system (refer to "Electronic vehicle  
immobilizer" on the next page).  
If possible, take all master keys  
that belong to the vehicle with you  
when you pick up your replacement  
keys.  
1 Master key with battery-powered  
lamp (switch on by pressing the BMW  
symbol)  
Key with remote control unit*  
Whenever you receive a new  
1 Master key with remote control unit  
replacement key, turn that key to  
position 2 in the ignition lock once (igni-  
tion switched on) and then back. This  
allows the electronic vehicle immobi-  
lizer to "learn" the new key.<
