Race Chip Ultimate questions.

I bought the race chip ultimate for my 2013 550xi and absolutely love it. However, it is time to take the car to the dealership for routine service, so I need to remove it. Here are my questions.

1. Can I just unplug it or do I need to use the bypass plug first?
2. The setting is currently set on "C". Do I need to lower to "B" for awhile before removal?
3. When I reinstall the chip, can I install it on the "C" setting or do I need to start at "B" and work my way up again?

Last question, what is the highest setting that you have used?

Thank you.

I have the RC Ultimate for more than a year and love it too..
1. Can I just unplug it or do I need to use the bypass plug first? I just unplug it, just maker sure you wait at least 10 to 15 minutes after engine off.
2. The setting is currently set on "C". Do I need to lower to "B" for awhile before removal? NO, you don't but I was in C and it gave me DTM so backed to B and everything is fine
3. When I reinstall the chip, can I install it on the "C" setting or do I need to start at "B" and work my way up again? Any setting as long as it doesn't cause DTM light.
