Can the BMW Display Key remotely start the vehicle?
1 Answers
If the remote start option is installed, the vehicle can be remotely started within the key's operating range. Remote start methods: For traditional remote keys: Press the lock button three times consecutively. For the Display Key: Swipe to unlock, locate the remote control interface, then press and hold the central START/STOP button for approximately 2 seconds until the engine starts (the button will turn green). Via the BMW Connected app on your smartphone: Navigate to the vehicle menu, which displays the vehicle status and control buttons. Locate the ventilation button (fan-shaped icon), tap it to access the remote engine start option, then confirm. Display Key functions: Remotely start the engine. In summer, activate parked car ventilation to precool the interior. In winter, for vehicles equipped with a preheating system, it can warm up the cabin in advance. Check security information such as whether doors, windows, sunroof, or trunk are properly closed. View vehicle data including fuel consumption, tire pressure, remaining range, and other information.
