The individual vehicle When purchasing your BMW, you have decided in favor of a model with individualized equip- ment and features. This Owner's Manual describes the entire array of options and equip- ment available with a specific BMW model. Please bear in mind that the manual may con- tain information on accessories and equipment that you have not specified for your own vehicle. Sections describing options and special equip- ment are marked by asterisks * to assist you in identifying possible differences between the descriptions in this manual and your own vehi- cle's equipment. If equipment in your BMW is not described in this Owner's Manual, please refer to the accom- panying Supplementary Owner's Manuals.
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 that the features described in this Owner's Manual could differ from those on your vehicle.
For your own safety
Maintenance and repairs
Advanced technology, e.g. the use of modern materials and high-performance electronics, requires specially adapted mainte- nance and repair methods. Therefore, have cor- responding work on your BMW performed only by your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle Center or a workshop that works according to BMW repair procedures with correspondingly trained personnel. If this work is not carried out prop- erly, 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 Genuine 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 accesso- ries 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 vehi- cle, its operation or its occupants. Genuine BMW Parts, BMW Accessories and other products approved by BMW, together with professional advice on using these items, are available from all BMW Sports Activity Vehi- cle 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 transceiver equipment such as CBs, walkie-talkies, ham radios, or sim- ilar 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. Refer to your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle Center for additional information.<
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control devices and sys- tems may be performed by any automotive repair establishment or individual using any cer- tified automotive part.<

Voice activation system
The concept The voice activation system allows you to con- trol operation of various vehicle systems with- out ever removing your hands from the steering wheel. Individual menu items on the Control Display can be spoken as commands. This frees you of having 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 rearview mirror, refer to page 14.
Precondition Using iDrive, set the language that applies for the voice activation system in order to enable identification of the spoken commands. To set the language of iDrive, refer to page 81.
Symbols in Owner's Manual
{...} Say the specified commands word for word. {{...}} Indicates responses of the voice acti- vation system.
Voice commands
Activating voice command system 1. Press the
button on the steering wheel. This symbol on the Control Display and
an acoustic signal tell you that the voice activation system can respond to com- mands.
22
2. Say the command.
The command is displayed on the Control Display.
This symbol appears on the Control Display
when you can enter additional commands. If no other commands are possible, then oper- ate the equipment via iDrive.
Terminating or canceling voice command system Press the or
button on the steering wheel
{Cancel}
In dialogs that call for a text of your choice, the procedure can only be canceled using the but- ton on the steering wheel.
Possible commands The commands available in each case depend on the menu item selected on the Control Dis- play. To have the available commands read aloud:
{Voice commands}
For example, if "CD/DVD" is selected, the com- mands for operating CD/Multimedia are read aloud.
Running functions directly with short commands With short commands you can carry out certain functions directly, regardless of which menu item is selected, refer to page 273.

Example: selecting the track of a CD 1. Switch on Entertainment sound output if
necessary. 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 abbrevi- ated. 1. "Settings" 2. "Language/Units" 3. "Speech mode:"
> Say the commands and numbers 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
common 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 abbrevia- tions.
> Keep doors, windows, and glass sunroof*/ panorama glass sunroof* closed in order to avoid unpleasant outside noise.
> Avoid making other noise in the vehicle
while speaking.
4. Select a setting:
> "Default" > "Short"
Notes
To operate the phone by voice, refer to page 209.<
For voice commands, bear in mind the follow- ing: > 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.

Opening and closing
Keys/remote control
Each remote control contains a battery which is automatically charged in the ignition lock while driving. Drive a longer distance with each remote control at least twice a year to keep the battery charged. For comfort access*, the remote control contains a replaceable battery, refer to page 37. Depending on which remote control is detected by the vehicle during unlocking, different set- tings are called up and carried out in the vehicle, refer to Personal Profile, page 26. Information on the required maintenance is also stored in the remote control, refer to Service data in remote control, page 244.
Integrated key
Press button 1 to unlock the key. The integrated key fits the following locks: > Driver's door, refer to page 29
> Floor panel flap in cargo bay, refer topage 124
26
New remote controls To obtain additional or replace lost keys, new remote controls with an integrated key are available at your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle Center.
Personal Profile
The concept You can set a number of functions of your BMW individually according to your preferences. Per- sonal Profile ensures that most of these set- tings are stored for the remote control currently in use without you having to do anything. When the vehicle is unlocked, the corresponding remote control is detected and the settings stored for it are called up and carried out. This means that you will always find your BMW set to your own personal settings even if another person with his/her own remote control and settings has used the vehicle since the last time you drove it. The individual settings are stored for a maximum of four remote controls, for two with comfort access*.
