BMW X3 keyless entry setting method: The car key needs to be carried. Touch the car handle with your hand, and the car lock will open. Generally, there is a small button on the door handle. Press the button to complete the locking action. The BMW X3 is an SUV model with a unique personality, introducing the new SUV Sports Activity Vehicle concept, and is equipped with BMW's patented xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system. The car's keyless entry system adopts the world's advanced RFID radio frequency technology and the most advanced vehicle identity coding recognition system. It is the first to apply a miniaturized, low-power RF antenna development solution and successfully integrates the remote control system and the keyless system. The system follows the traditional vehicle circuit protection, truly achieving a dual RF system and dual anti-theft protection, providing maximum convenience and safety for car owners.
Setting up the keyless entry feature for the BMW X3 was quite intuitive from what I remember. After getting into the car, make sure the key is inside the vehicle or in your pocket, then power on the vehicle. Navigate to the ‘Vehicle Settings’ menu on the central display screen, scroll to find the ‘Doors and Keys’ option; select ‘Keyless Entry’, and the system will prompt you to place the key near the dashboard area for detection. At this point, you might need to press the unlock button on the key to confirm pairing; once completed, step out of the car and test the feature by gently pulling the door handle to see if it automatically unlocks. Keep in mind that the key should remain within a meter’s distance, as going too far may cause it to malfunction. This feature is especially convenient for daily use, particularly when carrying shopping bags or during rainy days when you don’t want to fumble for the key. I’ve occasionally encountered signal interference issues, but restarting the car’s infotainment system resolved them; also, it’s crucial to regularly check the key’s battery to avoid it dying. Overall, BMW’s design makes every trip more time-efficient and hassle-free.
