Operation CHARM: Car repair manuals for everyone.

Information

It is highly recommended that all BMW center personnel that will utilize the Windows Vehicle/Key programmer review the following:

1. Service Information Bulletins, which can be easily viewed on the BMW Technical Information website at www.bmwtis.net

-- 09 03 98 - Configuration of Vehicle/Key Memory. This is a very informative SIB that explains the differences between Vehicle and Key memory, how to use each one and a listing of codable options on different models.

-- 09 01 96 - Basic Differences between Coding & Programming. This SIB explains what coding is and how it differs from Programming.

2. Information shipped with the Vehicle and Key Memory Programmer

-- The 79 page "Win CKM Manual" that is loaded on every unit has an easy access ICON on the desktop. Simply double tap the ICON and the manual will be displayed. This manual includes complete step by step instructions.

The computer Users Guide is included with each unit and covers the operation of the Laptop. This book should be read and kept in a handy location for reference

3. V-Sat program and/or video tape included with the initial programmer shipment

-- The "Programming Key Memory" program is currently airing on VisionWerks. This informative program explains how to use the Windows Vehicle Key Programmer in easy to understand terms. A copy of this program is contained on the video tape shipped with every unit.

It is imperative that the Vehicle and Key Memory programming process becomes part of every sales transaction. Using this programmer is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate BMW technology to your customers.
