The individual vehicle
When you ordered your BMW, you chose vari­ous items of equipment. This Owner's Manual describes the entire array of options and equip­ment available with a specific BMW model.
Please bear in mind that the manual may con­tain information on accessories and equipment that you have not specified for your own vehicle. Sections describing options and special equip­ment are marked by asterisks identifying possible differences between the descriptions in this manual and your own vehi­cle's equipment.
If equipment in your BMW is not described in this Owner's Manual, please refer to the accom­panying Supplementary Owner's Manuals.
* to assist you in
Editorial notice
BMW pursues a policy of continuous, ongoing development that is conceived to ensure that our vehicles continue to embody the highest quality and safety standards combined with advanced, state-of-the-art technology. For this reason, it is possible in exceptional cases that features described in this Owner's Manual could differ from those on your vehicle.
For your own safety
Maintenance and repair
Advanced technology, e.g. the use of
modern materials and powerful electron­ics, requires specially adapted maintenance and repair methods. You should therefore have the corresponding work on your vehicle per­formed only by your BMW center or at a work­shop that works according to BMW repair pro­cedures with correspondingly trained personnel. If this work is not carried out prop­erly, there is a danger of subsequent damage and related safety hazards.<
Parts and accessories
For your own safety, use genuine parts and accessories approved by BMW.
When you purchase accessories tested and approved by BMW and Original BMW Parts, you simultaneously 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 defects in material and workmanship.
BMW will not accept any liability for damage resulting from installation 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.
Original BMW Parts, BMW Accessories and other products approved by BMW, together with professional advice on using these items, are available from all BMW centers.
Installation and operation of accessories not approved by BMW, 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 transceiver equipment, for instance, CBs, walkie-talkies, ham radio or sim­ilar accessories, may cause extensive damage to the vehicle, compromise 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, replacement, or repair of
the emission control devices and sys­tems may be performed by any automotive repair establishment or individual using any certified automotive part.<

Voice activation system
*
The concept
The voice activation system allows you to con­trol operation of various vehicle systems with­out removing your hands from the steering wheel.
Most menu items on the Control Display can be voiced as commands. It is not necessary to use the controller.
The voice activation system transforms your oral commands into control signals for the selected systems and provides support in the form of instructions or questions.
The voice activation system uses a special microphone located in the area of the interior
Voice activation system
rearview mirror, refer to page 14.
Precondition
Via iDrive, select the language in which the voice activation system is operating, so that the spoken commands can be identified. Selecting the language for iDrive, refer to page 83.
Symbols in the Owner's Manual
{...} Say the specified commands word for word. {{...}} Indicates responses of the voice acti­vation system.
Saying commands
Activating voice activation system
1. Press the button on the steering wheel.
This symbol on the Control Display and an acoustic signal indicate that the voice activation system is ready to receive spo­ken commands.
2. Say the command.
The command appears on the Control Dis­play.
This symbol appears on the Control Display when you can enter additional commands. If no further commands are possible, continue by operating the item of equipment via iDrive.
Terminating or canceling voice activation system
Press the button on the steering wheel or
{Cancel}
In dialogs that call for a text of your choice, the procedure can only be canceled using the but­ton on the steering wheel.
Possible commands
The commands available in each case depend on the menu item selected on the Control Dis­play. To have the available commands read aloud:
{Voice commands} or {Help}
For example, if "CD" is selected, the commands for operating CD/Multimedia are read aloud.
22
Calling up functions immediately via
short commands
Short commands enable you to perform certain functions immediately, irrespective of which menu item is selected, refer to page 259.
Example: selecting the track of a CD
1. If necessary, switch on entertainment audio
output.
2. Press the button on the steering wheel.
3. Select the music track, e.g.:
{C D track 4} System says: {{Track 4}}
Setting the voice dialog
You can set whether the system should use the standard dialog or a shorter variant. In the shorter variant of the voice dialog, the prompts and responses from the system are abbrevi­ated.
1. "Settings"
2. "Language/Units"
3. "Speech mode:"
Notes
To operate the phone by voice, refer to page 189.<
For voice commands, bear in mind the following:
> 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 telephone connection.
> Pronounce the commands and digits
smoothly and at normal volume, avoiding excessive emphases and pauses. This also applies when spelling out and saying a full word during destination entry.
> When selecting a radio station, use the
standard pronunciation of the station name.
> For entries in the voice-activated phone
book, only use names in the language of the voice activation system and no abbrevia­tions.
> Keep the doors, windows and glass roof/
panorama glass roof closed to prevent interference from outside noise.
> Avoid ambient noise in the vehicle while
speaking.

Controls
This chapter is intended to provide you with
information for complete control of your vehicle.
All features and accessories that are useful for
driving and your safety, comfort and
convenience, are described here.
Opening and closing
Remote control
Each remote control contains a rechargeable
Opening and closing
battery that is automatically recharged when it is in the ignition lock while the car is being driven. Use each remote control at least twice a year for longer road trips in order to maintain the batteries' charge status. In cars with Comfort
*, the remote control contains a
Access replaceable battery, refer to page 36.
The settings called up and implemented when the car is unlocked depend on which remote control is used to unlock the car, refer to Per­sonal Profile, next column.
In addition, information about service require­ments is stored in the remote control, refer to Service data in the remote control, page 231.
New remote controls
Your BMW center can supply new remote controls with integrated keys as additional units or as replacements in the event of loss.
Personal Profile
The concept
You can set many of your BMW's functions to suit your personal needs and preferences. Without any action on your part, Personal Profile ensures that most of these settings are stored for the remote control currently in use. When you unlock the car, the remote control used for the purpose is recognized and the settings stored for it are called up and imple­mented.
This means that your personal settings will be activated for you, even if in the meantime your car was used by someone else with another remote control and the corresponding settings. The individual settings are stored for a maxi­mum of four remote controls. They are stored for two remote controls if Comfort Access use.
