Driverprofile
Concept
In the driver profiles, individual settings for sevj
eral drivers can be stored and called up again
when required.
GeneralinformationThere are three driver profiles with which perj
sonal vehicle settings can be stored. Every rej mote control has one of these driver profiles asjsigned.
If the vehicle is unlocked using a remote control, the assigned personal driver profile will be actij vated. All settings stored in the driver profile areautomatically applied.
If several drivers use their own remote control, the vehicle will adjust the personal settings durj
ing unlocking. These settings are also restored, if
the vehicle has been used in the meantime by a
person with a different remote control.
Changes to the settings are automatically stored
in the driver profile currently activated.
If another driver profile is selected via iDrive, the settings stored in it will be applied automatically.
The new driver profile is assigned to the remote
control currently used.
There is an additional guest profile available that
is not assigned to any remote control. It can be
used to apply settings in the vehicle without
changing the personal driver profiles.
Functionalrequirements For the system to be able to identify the driver
profile associated to a particular driver, the dej
tected remote control must be clearly allocated
to the driver.
This is the case when:'xThe driver is only carrying his or her own rej
mote control.'xThe driver unlocks the vehicle.'xThe driver gets into the vehicle through the
