Set the placements of your seat and mirrors. A red led within the Memory (top one) button turns on when the button is pressed. You don’t keep holding down the Memory button.

You need to make two handclaps, wave like a beauty queen at the iDrive screen, and then grin since you are the candid camera.
On the driver’s door card, close to the lock and unlock buttons, are the seat memory buttons. Are you consistently reaching for the same key fob? Different settings will be in effect if you mix up your keystrokes.
I’ve created my driver profile, connected it to the My BMW app and connected drive, and linked it to my key.
When I get back in the car after someone else has driven it, the key does nothing to adjust the seat to my preferred position even though I’ve already set the seat and the mirrors. Isn’t that what it’s meant to do?
They must lock the automobile, I think, is the restriction. It will function later when you use your key to open the vehicle.
Use of distinct keys is unquestionably necessary. Our family operates in the same manner. With just one key, you can unlock the door and move the seat.
I was considering. The door has two profile buttons and two keys. Can you store four different profiles as a result?
The same is true of the 1–7 shortcut buttons. They can be adjusted differently for each driver profile.
I believe the key profiles only permit one profile per key.
However, the two door buttons can only remember seat positions and outside mirror positions. The previously specified parameters are not “recorded” by them.
However, the two door buttons can only remember seat positions and outside mirror positions. The additional settings that were previously discussed are not stored.
You can temporarily switch your current profile to another saved one if you and your passenger are both in the car and have the same key. After that, the profile on the “active” key will be replaced. When two of us are sharing the driving and we only have one key with us, I use that very frequently.
The “last seat position – automated” setting in the driver profile menu is another option. I’ve had three BMWs with that setting, and I’m still not entirely clear what it does.
My automobile has a comfort opening as well. I’ve discovered so far that the profile doesn’t seem to be accurate when I open the car using the handles rather than the car key remote. I’m not sure if I’ve just had bad luck or if that’s a real thing.
MEMORY SEAT POSITIONS SET
When the key fob is inside the car, the gearshift is in PARK, and the car is in Power/ON or ACCESSORY mode:
- If the car detects key fob 1 or not, it will be displayed in the Driver Information Center.
- To the desired locations, adjust the steering column’s tilt and telescoping, outside mirrors, and driver seat. (To find out which memory features are available, check your car’s information.)
- Release the SET button after pressing it. There will be a beep.
- Press and hold Memory button 1 or 2, depending on the fob number you saw in the DIC, as soon as you release the SET button. To verify that the seat position was set, you will hear two beeps.
The seats and other memory features will return to their pre-stored settings after being set when:
- The appropriate Memory button is depressed. OR
- The car is switched on. (The seats and other features will adjust to the key fob in use-compatible settings.) Note: You must enable Auto Memory Recall.
Work the memory savers in cars?
“They are not efficient or risk-free. I-CAR advises against using them as well.” Director of field operations for I-CAR Jeff Peevy agreed. “A memory saver could put systems at risk,” Peevy said. “A memory saver can complete circuits that removing the battery opens in order to protect the system.”
How does the BMW GPS save a destination?
A very advanced navigation system that is fully integrated and installed in your BMW offers a variety of methods for entering data and can be customized to meet your needs. First, you can use the BMW ConnectedDrive portal or BMW Connected App to submit an address or location to your BMW in advance of your trip. When you’re driving, you can access it through your notifications. Select “Navigation” from the main menu or click the “NAV” button on the iDrive controller to manually enter a destination while inside the car. To select “Route Guidance” on the map screen, tilt the iDrive controller to the left and scroll up. Depending on how much information you want to provide, you may enter anything from a postcode or just the name of the town or city to a full address that includes the street name and house number. You have a variety of options for entering the information within each section. You can turn and pick each character using the iDrive, type each letter using the touchpad on top of the iDrive, utilize the voice assistant to recite the information, or use the touchscreen’s digital keyboard. After entering the necessary amount of information, simply scroll down and choose “Start Guidance.” As an alternative, you can conduct a points-of-interest search using your BMW’s connectivity, and the online feature will return current results from the Google database. Previously visited addresses are displayed in the recent destination menu and can be quickly accessed again. From here, frequently visited locations can be saved as favorite buttons. Simply use the iDrive to mark the location, then press and hold the corresponding favorite button. When you arrive at your desired location, the navigational assistance immediately terminates. By selecting “Route Guidance” from the left map menu once more, followed by “Stop Guidance,” the guidance can be be manually halted at any moment. As an alternative, you can simply say “Stop Guidance” while pushing the voice assistant button on the steering wheel. The BMW Professional Navigation System has a ton of additional useful features. Please see the integrated owner’s manual in the vehicle for more details, or get in touch with your local BMW Center.
How can I alter the settings for the seats in my BMW?
Both your safety and comfort depend on you driving in the proper position. Simply pull and hold the lever under the front of the seat, slide to the desired position, and release to move forward or backward. The seat base’s angle can be changed by pulling the lever located at the seat’s front corner. The height is adjusted using the side of the seat’s most forward lever. Use your body to add or remove pressure as necessary as you lift yourself up. A second lever, located behind the first, regulates the backrest’s angle. Hold the lever up once more as you find the ideal position, then let go. The backrest’s breadth can then be changed by pressing and holding the small toggle button in either way.

Should seats be saved?
Is it impolite to reserve seats? Last night, I attended my child’s band concert, and there were countless rows of parents holding seats for friends and family. Some of the attendees arrived 30 minutes later than expected or did not show up at all, I saw. Would it have been rude of me to sit down without moving the coats and purses first? This is something I’ve also seen in coffee establishments. When friends arrive 30 minutes later, people are holding seats for them because no one else can get a seat. I’m enraged by it!
Callie’s response: It sounds like you should arrive early to get a spot. I reserve seats for church, concerts, and meals. I will say it is disrespectful to save seats for someone who doesn’t show. But it happens and things come up.
LILLIE-BETH’S RESPONSE: Attendees always save seats for events like this at the school. Even though I frequently arrive too late to have a good seat in the front row and rarely save more people than my immediate family, I occasionally fall into this category. It is impolite to hold seats for people who never show up to an event, and if it doesn’t seem like they’re coming, I believe it’s OK to inquire about the availability of the seat rather than moving their belongings yourself. According to a coworker, his personal belief is that you need a specific proportion of individuals present for every seat saved. For example, if you are saving nine seats, at least three people must be there. This ideology has an algebraic formula that we developed to explain it, but I don’t think you need it to understand the concept.
Really, it depends on the circumstances. It’s not a good idea to move people’s personal belongings out of the way, but I think it’s probably disrespectful to save entire rows for people who may or may not show up. In response to this query, another coworker, Heather Warlick, stated, “Two rudes don’t make a nice.” Do your best to make accommodations for your deceased family members while ensuring that other patrons may still enjoy the concert. Keep in mind that other people are there for the same reason that you are.
Helen’s response: You ought to be able to reserve that individual a seat next to you if they let you out to go to the car. It seems disrespectful to reserve multiple rows of seats so that family and friends can sit together.
Remove the coats and purses as soon as you hear through smartphone that no one is arriving if you happen to have saved seats anyway. Seat saving rules certainly exist in some restaurants and theaters, although I doubt the school has them. Just don’t be the person who believes that because you saved them, folks who arrive late are entitled to the best seats in the house.
Guest response from Devonne Carter, a clinical social worker with a license who has instructed etiquette courses at Oklahoma Christian University: Every circumstance is unique. Even though saving seats is impolite, you have no power over those nearby. There simply isn’t a way to win in this circumstance. Both saving seats and then having latecomers claim them are impolite, but so is moving someone else’s property.
