Safety Information
For your own safety and the safety of others, and to prevent damage to the device and
vehicles upon which it is used, it is important that the safety instructions presented
throughout the product user manual be read and understood by all persons operating or
coming into contact with the device.
There are various procedures, techniques, tools, and parts for servicing vehicles, as well
as in the skill of the person doing the work. Because of the vast number of test
applications and variations in the products that can be tested with this equipment, we
cannot possibly anticipate or provide advice or safety messages to cover every
circumstance. It is the automotive technician’s responsibility to be knowledgeable of the
system being tested. It is crucial to use proper service methods and test procedures. It
is essential to perform tests in an appropriate and acceptable manner that does not
endanger your safety, the safety of others in the work area, the device being used, or the
vehicle being tested.
Before using the device, always refer to and follow the safety messages and applicable
test procedures provided by the manufacturer of the vehicle or equipment being tested.
Use the device only as described in this manual. Read, understand, and follow all safety
messages and instructions in this manual.
Safety Messages
Safety messages are provided to help prevent personal injury and equipment damage.
All safety messages are introduced by a signal word indicating the hazard level.
DANGER
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or
serious injury to the operator or to bystanders.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury to the operator or to bystanders.
Safety Instructions
The safety messages herein cover situations Auro is aware of. Auro cannot know,
evaluate or advise you as to all of the possible hazards. You must be certain that any
condition or service procedure encountered does not jeopardize your personal safety.
DANGER
iii
When an engine is operating, keep the service area WELL VENTILATED or attach a
building exhaust removal system to the engine exhaust system. Engines produce carbon
mooxide, an odorless, poisonous gas that causes slower reaction time and can lead to
serious personal injury or loss of life.
SAFETY WARNINGS
Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.
Wear safety eye protection that meets ANSI standards.
Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc. away from all moving or hot
engine parts.
Operate the vehicle in a well ventilated work area, for exhaust gases are poisonous.
Put the transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or NEUTRAL (for manual
transmission) and make sure the parking brake is engaged.
Put blocks in front of the drive wheels and never leave the vehicle unattended while
testing.
Be extra cautious when working around the ignition coil, distributor cap, ignition wires
and spark plugs. These components create hazardous voltages when the engine is
running.
Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for gasoline, chemical, and electrical fires nearby.
Do not connect or disconnect any test equipment while the ignition is on or the
engine is running.
Keep the test equipment dry, clean, free from oil, water or grease. Use a mild
detergent on a clean cloth to clean the outside of the equipment as necessary.
Do not drive the vehicle and operate the test equipment at the same time. Any
distraction may cause an accident.
Refer to the service manual for the vehicle being serviced and adhere to all
diagnostic procedures and precautions. Failure to do so may result in personal injury
or damage to the test equipment.
To avoid damaging the test equipment or generating false data, make sure the
vehicle battery is fully charged and the connection to the vehicle DLC is clean and
secure.
Do not place the test equipment on the distributor of the vehicle. Strong electro-
magnetic interference can damage the equipment.

Introduction
This manual introduces how to conduct BMW key learning with Auro OtoSys IM100
Smart Mode and Expert Mode.
Two options are available when accessing the IMMO function:
Smart Mode – the IM100 tablet will read the vehicle information and analyze the
IMMO part information automatically.
Expert Mode – user can make selections step by step to locate the IMMO part.
Procedures before getting started:
1. Connect the IM100 tablet to the programmer UP200 via included mini USB
cable.
2. Dismount the ECU module from the vehicle, refer to appendix on page 30.
3. Connect the ECU module to the Emergency coil stretched out from COM7.
4. Connect one end of the included OBD cable to the IM100 tablet, while the other
end needs to be connected to the wire harness stretched out from COM8 on the
ECU module. The wire harness is not included, you could DIY, details in
Appendix on page 31.
5. Make sure the WiFi service is available in case the operation data needs to be
sent.
NOTE
Illustrations used in this manual are samples, and the actual testing screens may
vary by vehicle. Observe the menu titles and on-screen instructions to make correct
selections and operations.
