For your own safety
Maintenance and repairs
Advanced technology, e.g., the use of modern materials and high-performance electronics, re‐
Notes
quires suitable maintenance and repair meth‐ ods.
Therefore, have this work performed only by a BMW center or a workshop that works accord‐ ing to BMW repair procedures with appropri‐ ately trained personnel.
If this work is not carried out properly, there is the danger of subsequent damage and related safety hazards.
Parts and Accessories
For your own safety, use genuine parts and ac‐ cessories approved by BMW. When you pur‐ chase accessories tested and approved by BMW and Genuine BMW Parts, you simultane‐ ously acquire the assurance that they have been thoroughly tested by BMW to ensure optimum performance when installed on your vehicle. BMW warrants these parts to be free from de‐ fects in material and workmanship. BMW will not accept any liability for damage resulting from in‐ stallation of parts and accessories not approved by BMW. BMW cannot test every product made by other manufacturers to verify if it can be used on a BMW safely and without risk to either the vehicle, its operation, or its occupants. Genuine BMW Parts, BMW Accessories and other prod‐ ucts approved by BMW, together with profes‐ sional advice on using these items, are available from all BMW centers. Installation and operation of non-BMW approved accessories such as alarms, radios, amplifiers, radar detectors, wheels, suspension components, brake dust shields, telephones, including operation of any mobile phone from within the vehicle without using an externally mounted antenna, or trans‐ ceiver equipment, for instance, CBs, walkie­talkies, ham radios or similar accessories, may cause extensive damage to the vehicle, com‐ promise its safety, interfere with the vehicle's electrical system or affect the validity of the BMW Limited Warranty. See your BMW center for additional information. Maintenance, re‐ placement, or repair of the emission control de‐ vices and systems may be performed by any au‐
tomotive repair establishment or individual using any certified automotive part.

Therefore, equipment is also described that is not available in a vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional equip‐ ment or country variant. This also applies for safety-related functions and systems.

The concept

The iDrive combines the functions of a multitude of switches. Thus, these functions can be oper‐ ated from a central location.
Using the iDrive during a trip
To avoid becoming distracted and posing an unnecessary hazard to your vehicle's occu‐ pants and to other road users, never attempt to use the controls or enter information unless traf‐ fic and road conditions allow this.◀

Voice activation system

Vehicle equipment

All standard, country-specific and optional equipment that is offered in the model series is described in this chapter. Therefore, equipment is also described that is not available in a vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional equip‐ ment or country variant. This also applies for safety-related functions and systems.

The concept

▷ Most functions that are displayed on the
Control Display can be operated by spoken commands via the voice activation system. The system prompts you to make your en‐ tries.
▷ Functions that can only be used when the
vehicle is stationary cannot be operated us‐ ing the voice activation system.
▷ The system uses a special microphone on
the driver's side.
▷ ›...‹ Verbal instructions in the Owner's
Manual to use with the voice activation sys‐ tem.

Requirements

Via the Control Display, set a language that is also supported by the voice activation system so that the spoken commands can be identified.
Set the language, refer to page 78.

Using voice activation

2. Wait for the signal.
3. Say the command.
The command is displayed in the instrument cluster.
This symbol in the instrument cluster indi‐
cates that the voice activation system is active. If no other commands are available, operate the
function in this case via iDrive.
Terminating the voice activation system
Briefly press the button on the steering wheel or ›Cancel‹.

Possible commands

Most menu items on the Control Display can be voiced as commands.
The available commands depend on which menu is currently displayed on the Control Dis‐ play.
There are short commands for functions of the main menu.
Some list entries, e.g. Phone book entries, can also be selected via the voice activation system. Speak these list entries exactly as they are dis‐ played in the respective list.
Having possible commands read aloud
You can have the available commands read out loud for you: ›Voice commands‹
For example, if the "Settings" menu is displayed, the commands for the settings are read out loud.
Activating the voice activation system

Setting the voice dialog

You can set whether the system should use the standard dialog or a shorter version.
In the shorter variant of the voice dialog, the an‐ nouncements from the system are issued in an abbreviated form.
On the Control Display:
"Settings"
1.
2. "Language/Units"
3. "Speech mode:"
4. Select the setting.

Adjusting the volume

Turn the volume button while giving an instruc‐ tion until the desired volume is set.
▷ The volume remains constant even if the
volume of other audio sources is changed.
▷ The volume is stored for the remote control
currently in use.

Notes on Emergency Requests

Do not use the voice activation system to initiate an Emergency Request. In stressful situations, the voice and vocal pitch can change. This can unnecessarily delay the establishment of a tel‐ ephone connection.
Instead, use the SOS button, refer to page 243, in the vicinity of the interior mirror.

Environmental conditions

▷ Say the commands, numbers, and letters
smoothly and with normal volume, empha‐ sis, and speed.
▷ Always say commands in the language of
the voice activation system.
▷ When selecting a radio station, use the com‐
mon pronunciation of the station name:
23

›Station ...‹ e. g. Classic Radio station
▷ Keep the doors, windows, and glass sun‐
roof closed to prevent noise interference.
▷ Avoid making other noise in the vehicle
while speaking.
