Electronic immobiliser
EWS
The on-board electronics access
the data saved in the ignition
key via a ring aerial in the igni-
tion lock. The ignition is not en-
abled for starting until the engine
control unit has recognised the
ignition key as "authorised" for
your motorcycle.
A spare key attached to
the same ring as the ig-
nition key used to start the en-
gine could "irritate" the electron-
ics, in which case the enabling
signal for starting is not issued.
The EWS warning appears in the
multifunction display.
Always keep the spare key sep-
arately from the ignition key.
If you lose your key, you
can have it barred by your
BMW Motorrad authorised
dealer. If you wish to do this, you
will need to bring all other keys
for the motorbike with you.
The engine cannot be started
by a barred ignition key, but an
ignition key that has been barred
can subsequently be reactivated.
