System limits
A clear driver detection via the vehicle key or
the digital key may not always be possible in
the following cases, for example:
▷ The driver changes, but the vehicle is not
locked and unlocked.
▷ When multiple vehicle keys or multiple digi-
tal keys, to which a BMW ID is assigned,
are located outside the driver's side of the
vehicle.
▷ When the vehicle was unlocked via the My
BMW App.
The use of personal settings that are stored for
a BMW ID in other vehicles is subject to techni-
cal limitations. For example, settings may be
stored for a system that is not available, or
available in a non-compatible version, in other
vehicles.
Driver profiles
Principle
In non-ConnectedDrive countries, you can use
driver profiles to save and activate personal
vehicle settings. If a vehicle is used by several
people, each person can use their own driver
profile in the vehicle. If a driver profile is acti-
vated, the settings stored for it are applied to
the vehicle.
General information
Your vehicle can save up to seven driver pro-
files. With driver recognition, a driver profile
can be activated as soon as the vehicle is un-
locked. To do so, a vehicle key must be linked
to the driver profile. After unlocking, you can
change the driver profile.
Functional requirements
The vehicle must be stationary to create,
change, delete, or edit a driver profile.
Welcome window
After unlocking the vehicle, a Welcome window
is shown on the control display. The type of
the welcome depends on the following prereq-
uisites:
▷ No driver profile is saved to the vehicle:
The welcome is neutral. A new driver profile
can be added.
▷ Vehicle key has not been assigned to a
driver profile:
The welcome is neutral. Saved driver pro-
files are shown for selection. A new driver
profile can be added.
▷ A driver profile has been assigned to the
vehicle key:
The welcome is personalized, the stored
settings are activated. The available driver
profiles are shown for selection. A new
driver profile can be added.
Driver profile, driver
You can save vehicle settings to the driver pro-
file "Driver", create a name for it, and select a
profile image.
Driver profile, guest
The “guest” driver profile can be used to oper-
ate the vehicle without changing the settings
saved for other driver profiles.
Use of the vehicle with the "Guest" driver
profile is subject to the following restrictions,
among others:
▷
Changed settings are not saved.
▷ It is not possible to specify automatic driver
recognition or assign a PIN.
▷ The name and profile image cannot be
changed.
