USB/audio interface with extended functions.
In combination with the USB/audio interface and the original iPod USB
cable, your BMW is able to display the album cover for the currently
played title in the Control Display. This “Cover Art” display adds the cover
for any song and album, for fast and convenient reference (function also
available for other music devices). The USB/audio interface also makes it
easy to update a part of the vehicle software in your BMW via a USB stick.
This provides access to the complete range of functions supported by
new mobile phone and music player models.
Infotainment.
“I used to have to stay late at the offi ce. Today,
I just take it along with me. Using the BMW
ConnectedDrive Offi ce function.”
Bluetooth Audio Streaming.
The Bluetooth connection
gives drivers access to great on-board
entertainment. They can now wirelessly stream music from music players
or mobile phones positioned anywhere in the vehicle via Bluetooth into
the vehicle’s HiFi system. In addition, the personal audio library of the
player or mobile phone appears in the display where it can be accessed
via the iDrive Controller. This even works in parallel to existing phone
connections.
Bluetooth Offi ce.
Use the time you spend on the road even more effectively! Thanks to the
optional mobile phone preparation with Bluetooth interface in conjunction
with a navigation system and the intelligent integration of selected
business mobile phones
, you can use the Bluetooth connection to show
Offi ce functions such as e-mails, dates, tasks or SMS messages on the
Control Display while on the move, or have them read out aloud to you via
the audio speakers, using the narrator function.

High-beam assistant.
The optional High-beam assistant recognises light sources in the car’s
environment and switches the high beam on and off, according to the
traffi c situation. When the system is active, an image sensor at the back
of the interior mirror monitors the traffi c and lighting conditions. Based on
these sensor images, the assistant decides whether or not the high beam
should be switched on. When it detects vehicles ahead, or fi nds that
ambient light is suffi cient, the high beam is switched off again.
Safety.
“When I drive at night, this assistant
really brightens things up:
the BMW High-beam assistant.”
